When you’re filling your vehicle’s gas tank, don’t “top off” the car when the pump stops. When you do, you’re not only wasting gas, but you’re wasting money. Adding that little bit of extra gas actually increases the chances that excess fuel will simply evaporate in the atmosphere. And if your car is newer, it may have something called an “emissions canister” that is designed to prevent fuel vapors from leaking. Adding too much gas renders the safeguard of the canister useless and increases the likelihood of gas leaking or spilling out of the tank.

When you’re shopping for a new lamp at the store, it’s a good idea to bring an energy-efficient lightbulb from home, to see how it looks in the light fixture. Retailers often use higher-wattage bulbs in floor models to help the product look its brightest and best. These bulbs typically produce much more light than the energy-efficient, lower-wattage ones you’re using at home. Swapping out the store’s bulb to see what kind of light the fixture will produce at home will give you a better assessment of your possible purchase.

Did you know hundreds of millions of people all over the world live with visual impairment that could be easily fixed with an eye exam and a pair of eyeglasses? The next time you need a pair of glasses, consider shopping with a brand or retailer that matches your purchase with a donated pair for someone in need. Brands like Warby Parker give a free pair for every pair sold, which means when you’re seeing better, someone else in the world is, too.
