jelly cups for tea bags? n put egg shells? really 1stime hearOriginally posted by TehJarVu:i buy a lot of frozen meals here, so always keep the containers, got too many now.
reuse them for putting potato chips, or heating up stuff in the microwave (eg. my frozen beans/veg).
those little jelly cups also i keep, use them for putting tea bags after i make my tea, then sometimes i reuse the teabags
also use these little cups to put egg shells after i cracked my eggs, very handy.

you can sprinkle the egg shells on your flower bed
to prevent snails to spoiling them
apparently their soft bodies don't like the prickly feel of egg shell pieces..
I blardy hate snails.

old clothes that can still wear but we dun want to wear(no holes no stain, just too old fashion or become fat cannot wear) my family will gather all together and give to Salvation(did i spell wrong?) army. (btw, it's sad to see that some ppl take Bishan salvation army as trash dumping corner. Come on, pls give something that ppl can use again.)
Those that cannot wear we wont give away but use to wipe things or put outside bathroom to dry feet.
those u guys mention like shoe boxes(my store room got a lot!!) and newspaper we use also.
