I ran out of kitchen soap and ended up refilling it with "rich citrus cream" body wash which I know I won't use on my body, but it's perfect for the kitchen! I hate when things are wasted so I am a huge fan of using it up and wearing it out.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03374164784261667322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8553381271462319984.post-3984132068880663372007-10-11T12:23:00.000-04:002007-10-11T12:23:00.000-04:00Well I can actually agree on the shoe thing (altho...Well I can actually agree on the shoe thing (although I only really have a few pairs at a time.) If something hurts it gets discarded immediately! <BR/><BR/>I was going to mention in the post (but it was getting too long!) that if you have something that is clearly not working for you. (like uncomfortable shoes or moisturizer that gives you a rash) then I consider that you need a new one of said item and should toss the one you have. I am a big proponent of not having anything in your house that you don't love or can use.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01725324685109415066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8553381271462319984.post-13199782317787200902007-10-11T11:25:00.000-04:002007-10-11T11:25:00.000-04:00My weakness is footwear.

It's that, when my feet are uncomfortable, I can't even pay attention to anything else going on, so I'm always on the quest for the perfect shoe.<BR/><BR/>So, my 'use it up and wear it out' philosophy has not worked so well there, because the minute the shoe starts hurting me, I toss it. <BR/><BR/>However, I have found that those sport insert insoles that you can buy for $10 really will help extend the life of a sneaker.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07729283374222314144noreply@blogger.com
