I remember hearing about a story about a mother in the United States who collected and picked up bottles to put her child through College. That is truly amazing! It just shows that every little bit helps, but you still have to work hard. This mother would wake up early in the morning everyday and look in people's trash to collect bottles. Every time we toss away a recyclable can or bottle, we are literally throwing money away. It's a good habit to start recycling and be mindful of our environment, and it's just another way to put a little bit of money back into your pocket.
Today, I brought 3 garbage bags full of bottles, cans, milk jugs, etc. The pay out was $21.15. Not bad for just collecting recyclables.
I finally got a hit from one of the many items I've been trying to sell on Kijiji. I sold my old Kenwood receiver with speakers for $20. I will continue to sell stuff on Kijiji until everything is sold. If I'm unable to sell, I will donate.
Today, I made $41.15.
My grand total to date is $302.95. Still a long ways from my goal but one teeny tiny step at a time!
