Ecollo had dedicated the past two weeks to suggesting ways you can save money while saving the earth. While some of these suggestions may not have been exactly ground-breaking and some may border on common sense, we chose to focus more on practical and fun ways to do so during a very stressful time.

☆ Swap everything. Well, maybe not everything. But you can trade books, toys and clothes so you still have "new" things without the added cost.

☆ While your snacking habits may not solve a world crisis, they can contribute to less waste, and therefore a healthier earth (and you!).

☆ The warehouse club near you may just have some perfect solutions to save you some cash - no food waste required.

☆ Make things around your home last longer - from the food you eat to the shampoo you use on your hair.

☆ Is good old PB&J the answer to all your problems? Maybe not all of them, but it can reduce your carbon footprint without breaking the bank.
