When grocery shopping, make a list of what you need and stick to it. Make a list of what you toss away and don't buy it again. Don't try new foods at warehouse stores; instead, only buy bulk quantities of items you know your family frequently eats and loves. Avoid using coupons on food products you're unsure of, especially if it's a discount for multiples of one item. You're not saving money if you don't eat it. Don't be afraid of a half-empty fridge. If you need something, look for food delivery services in your area. Most of us, however, live near major supermarkets that are easy to get in and out of.

Whether it's organic or conventional, vintage or new, it's the quality of clothes that matter when shopping for new duds. Poorly made clothes that fall apart quickly are never a green choice because they need to be replaced more frequently. When buying new clothes and accessories, look for pieces that will last for the long haul -- not "cheap chic" disposable pieces.

For many people, a microwave is a daily necessity for food preparation. Make a habit of cleaning the inside of the microwave, especially right after any food splatters while heating. A dirty microwave can be a breeding ground for mold, so make sure to wipe it down with a damp microfiber towel to get it clean.
