Me too. I'm conserving far more resources now than when I was younger. Heck, when I was a kid, I never recycled; then I became more and more of a recycler, and now I'm big into "reuse is better than recycling!" I fix when I can, rather than tossing and buying new. I'm waaay more conservative than when I was a kid.
And, like you, I'm ready to go out and kill Nazis, just like my granddad's did.
Got any advice on reusing all the pill bottles I have from being broken?
I’ve looked into places that reuse them for pills but there’s like one ministry that takes them and I’d need to ship..
Totally nice bottles without labels and you can’t just take them back to the pharmacy or something…?????? The fuck.
I refuse to put them into recycling, they won’t be.. so I’m just sitting here with 100 or so bottles just.. taking up space…
Old pill bottles would work fine for spices! Or... Buy pills in bulk, and then divvy them up into the smaller bottles. Or, if they are the orange bottles, put little LED lights in them for a warm diffuse ambiance.
I wish I could get my pills in bulk but I can’t. I get three new bottles every 90 days like clockwork. Sometimes I even get more! Yay!
I don’t have enough spices for them. Especially since I keep my spices in sealed glass. But if I didn’t that would be a great use!
The light idea is interesting, but you have to really like orange light, and I don’t ;)
