Your floral arrangements should not have more frequent flyer miles than you do. Exotic blooms come from tropical locations, which means they are flown in from all over the world. Think local with your arrangements: Put a wooden bowlful of apples on the table; it looks just as good (and delicious) as any tropical arrangement.

My policy is even if I have a coupon for something, I don't buy it if I don't really use it. But one person's least favorite organic cereal can certainly be someone else's favorite, so leave the $2 coupon right on top of the box in the cereal aisle to help someone save. The more we all buy organic products, the more the industry will keep creating them.

Not all air purifiers are the same, so make sure you find one that emits no ozone back into the air. There are some purifiers on the market that suck bacteria and micro-particles of dirt from the air, but do it all while releasing ozone. This creates an unhealthy environment. If you're going to use an air purifier, look for one that is non-ionic for the healthiest choice.
