Free: Small shipping boxes and packing (Little Village) Every two weeks I get medication shipped in this small shipping box with an 8x11 bubble wrap sleeve and recycled fabric padding/insulation.

Free: Candles - READ (Buffalo Grove, IL) These do not have wicks but are great for warmers or just decorative use. I love higher end candles but hate the waste of the bit that’s always leftover when the wick burns out. So I pour them into a reused jar for a pretty layered look. Many scents. Cheapest brand will be Yankee Candle but will also have Jo Malone, Nest, Boy Smells, etc.
