    Has anyone ever tried putting wrapping paper in a tinfoil container? How about the tip on saving soap bits? What tip did you like?

    thanks! I added them to my favs.
    I never used the aluminum foil box for wrapping paper- but it seems like a good idea. Although- I wouldn't want to cut down a larger roll to fit into the box- that seems wasteful.
    Currentl, I just wrap all the leftover paper around an empty tube. Same thing; I think.
    Great site! Lots of freebies

    Yes, Frugalfanny I thought cutting down the wrapping paper seemed very wasteful to me as well.

    I liked the site, thanks Shell. I have actually done a few of them on my own. The Dawn bottles made into scoops for one.
