A lot of people will splurge on a designer handbag or accessory before attending an important milestone event, like a wedding or reunion. Instead of spending tons of money on something you may regret purchasing later, think green by renting instead. At websites like RentMeaHandbag.com and BagBorroworSteal.com, you can rent designer duds much like you would rent a DVD: You pay only for the amount of time you use it. Name-brand bags can be yours for as little as $10 per week.

City dwellers who rarely use their cars may want to think twice about keeping them. The total cost of gas, registration, insurance and payments (if the car isn't owned outright) can add up to thousands of dollars a year. A car that isn't a daily necessity can be sold to save money; when you do need a car, consider renting instead. This is an economical and ecological way to travel because you use the car only when you really, truly need it.

Bed pillows, on average, should be changed every year if you sleep on them nightly or every two years if you sleep on them periodically. Over time, they can become a breeding ground for dust mites, creating an unhealthy sleep environment in your bedroom. But what should you do with your old pillows? Use the old filling to freshen the bed your dog sleeps on. Simply wash the pillows and tumble dry them in the dryer. Rip open the pillow and replace the old fill with the new in the dog bed.
