- I had six people over for take-out Chinese food. When we were finished eating, we had approximately 100 packets for soy sauce, duck sauce and spicy mustard! The restaurant had put these in out bags... we didn't take any extra. Typically, people throw them away.
- At a lunch buffet today, we had various mayo-based salads and sandwiches. The host offered utensils packs. You know the kind... fork, spoon, knife, salt, pepper and a napkin all hermetically sealed. I only needed a fork, though. Should I throw the rest away?
Before you throw away something that is perfectly new and clean, consider saving it and using it later. You might be able to save a little money with this trick. Post your comments with other ideas of disposable things you might save for later!

I always save the stack of napkins they give you with take-out. We also re-use the plastic take-out containers instead of chucking them :)
