TerraCycle is trying to eliminate the idea of waste. To do so, we must find great uses for objects that used to be considered waste. And best of all, you can raise funds for your favorite charity by helping us collect waste. It’s easy and shipping is free.
you get paid .02 for each used juice pouch, energy bar wrapper, yogurt container or cookie wrapper you send them. They also had one for 12oz soda bottles for .05 each but it was already full. Interesting concept….

This was not taken from what I would consider a *reputable source* site so don’t take it as the word from god but it did make for an interesting read - Check it how here. This site talks a lot about aliens and other weird paranormal crap…which I (at this point in my life) do NOT believe in *LOL* but I would love to know their source on the cancer info. Some more neat info can be found at answers.com (here) in regards to blood types - I would consider this to be *slightly* more accurate *LOL* I also found this site (this one links to A but the other types can be found through a link at the bottom) that *claims* to have found a blood type diet. Basically you eat food that are geared with your blood type…uh ok. I read it anyway and it was…interesting - not sure I’m going to follow it *LOL*

I really hate that the government has so much darn control over what we do. It’s absurd that you can’t do what you want when you own your own crap. If I am paying for my house/property I should be able to own/plant/build whatever the heck I want. What’s the point of owning something if you have to ask permission before you can do anything? I just read a news story about a 60 year old farmer who was slaughtering his own cows. The state of Michigan wanted to have some testing done and he refused..good grief you would have thought he was some kinda terrorist. Just insanity. Want to read it ? Click here

Amazon’s grocery section - Usually just bulk offers but sometimes you can get a good deal
SlickDeals forum - it has sections for freebies, deals, coupons, rebates and more.
FatWallet - Basically the same as Slickdeals but sometimes one has something the other doesn’t
Target Tracker - (Not a deal/Freebie but will help find out if an item is in stock) Just change the ZIP=?? to your local zip and then change the ASIN=??? to the ASIN of your item
