SAVE MONEY AND RECYCLE YOUR INK CARTRIDGES
Lately my big things are save money and save the planet. Both have become really important to me and I am really dedicated to this cause. I guess I never really thought about how unkind we were being to the planet until I tried to start saving some money, and going on line for money saving ideas. I found it really ironic that saving money, in many instances also meant doing something that was helping the environment.
I have since started being really conscientious and trying to do things that will save the planet, even in the rare case that they don't save me money. For instance, I really never knew that the ink cartridges for my Cannon Bubble Jet printer were recyclable. I just recently found out that when you use all the printer ink out of your printer ink cartridges, you have a few options as to what you can do. First, you can take the old cartridge back to the store and have it recycled. Some stores, depending on the brand of your printer ink, may even give you a few dollars off the purchase of a new one. Secondly, you can actually purchase do it your self refill kits, that basically allow you to reuse the same cartridge and refill it with ink yourself. This of course saves you some money, while also helping not to fill up our landfills any more than necessary. You can these ink refill kits at stores, online, and even sometimes you can a good deal on Ebay on these kits. It is always a good idea to shop around and try to save some money. The internet can help you in this process.
Saving money on printer ink cartridges is just another way that you can find to perhaps stash away a few extra dollars while helping stay green. We all need to be more aware of staying green and keeping green. Isn't it ironic that they call environmentally friendly stuff green, and that money is also green? Staying green (environmentally friendly) can also help you hang onto your green (your money). The great thing about it is that you can help save the world and help save yourself all at the same time.
