50 All-Time New Uses for Old Things

Love the postage idea! Thanks!

Some of these ideas are some my parents used when I was a yougster.  My dad lost his job back in the early eighties and we lived dirt poor but still amazingly had a roof over our heads.  Now that I see these things I think back to how great it was when this happened and how it brought family together to work as a unit.  I learned some of these ways and use them myself to this day not only to save money but for gratification that it can make a difference.  Some people post such negative crap on here and do not realize that they are not in touch with reality and how words can actually hurt people emotionally when the article was for ideas and tips to save...I'd have to say, if someone is learning this stuff in college then there may be a bright future after all because not many kids these days would even think or lower themselves to save.  Mad props to those practicing positive reinforcement and the ideas in print.

Oh  for you ketchup bottle nay-sayers ******

 

Try this;    mix batter extra thin (about 1/8th to 1/4 inch after cooked ) for a great pan cake. 

Brown each side and shazam great tasting pancakes that are "lower" on calories

and taste great.  Put hot syrup on top of the butter and jam to melt it in and wow

great breakfast with bacon and hot coffee.

Yes this is from yester-year, in the 50's.  Made the mix go further and saved money

but look what a good breakfast. 

 This is for everyone except for the grumpy stinkers

who focus on negative things

Why is it that people can always find a way to turn something, that doesn't even effect them directly, into a negative? Does it have any bearing on your life whether you do or don't try some of these suggestions? Apparently your life is just that pathetic that you feel the need to bring others down with you. Next time you want to complain about something go look in the mirror. At least while there you may find someone who cares.

It's called COMMON SENSE. I forgot it passed away about 10yrs ago.
