According to the Small Business Association, one-third of all small businesses fail within the first two years. While that may not be news to cheer about, it does make you wonder where all that semi-new office equipment ends up. If you're starting a new business, don't think full-price desks, chairs and filing cabinets for your office. Think used instead. Many office furniture stores have rows of returned furniture at steeply discounted prices. Go green and save green by reusing.

There's one more thing you can bring to the dry cleaner when dropping off your clothes: a garment bag. Instead of wrapping your sweaters, shirts and jackets in individual plastic bags that will end up in the landfill, ask the dry cleaner to hang everything in your own bag. Bonus: If you're a frequent flyer, your clothes are ready to go. Just pack and go.

If you're like me, you have a stack of unwanted CDs that you're not quite sure what to do with. Sure, you could donate them to Goodwill, where they'll just join the mounds of other donated discs collecting dust, but why not trade them in for music you'll actually want? Swapacd.com is an online community that lets you swap your old CDs with other music lovers. Find one you want and post ones you're willing to give away. It's that easy.
