Lower your thermostat's temperature in the winter and raise it in the summer. Use a programmable thermostat to adjust the temperature automatically when you're not home.

Love to know what you're going to do with all the cans?
I did my monthly recycle trip to the dump today and picked up a lovely set of four chairs and a table that was up for grabs, not a bad exchange:)
Janie, I actually took the picture in front of a house down the street, the cans aren't for me. When I was younger the area I lived in had days where people left our stuff they didn't want anymore, and we could go around and pick it up. Like a free tag sale
JO, WW stands for Wordless Wednesday. I edited the title to that
I love this idea. You have inspired me to get out a box to start collecting glass jars and the like. I can see a big arts and crafts project coming on for my two girls....I am sure I (and the Grandmothers) will get lots of lovely hand decorated treasure containers for Christmas.
Thanks xxx
I actually thought about asking what they were going to make... but they weren't outside when I stopped to take the picture, and I didn't want to seem like a weirdo by walking up to their door, lol!
Patty, that sounds awesome! I'm glad the picture inspired you

What a great way of recycling! And we don't even have to use energy to reprocess them at all.

I was mostly collecting all the coffee cans and sold it at the local recycling center.
By the way, Stefanie, would you want any coffee cans here? Lol

Makes me really curious what this person is going to make. And it definitely makes me feel a little crafty myself

I can't believe people left stuff. You must live in a great neighboorhood. I wonder what they are going to make with that?

Brilliant idea. Our local mall actually featured some work out of recycling material. It was really good.
