In your column a couple weeks ago, you mentioned empty prescription pill containers not being recyclable. However, my husband reuses these containers by storing $10 worth of quarters in each one. ~Reuse When Possible

Dear Reuse When Possible,

Great idea. Not only is your husband keeping the pill bottles out of the trash, he is saving money. If any reader has an idea for reusing non-recyclable items, I would love to hear about them. I will pass your ideas on to readers in a future column.
