May I please have a handful of napkins?
Did you ever notice....everytime you go to a fast food drive up you get more napkins than you would ever need for your meal??? It happens to us anyway! Maybe we're just a neat family and don't spill...maybe we are slobs and don't really care to wipe it up. Either way, we found we were throwing away unused napkins. So, being the quirky little family that we sometimes are...we decided to capitalize on this. We started saving our napkins from fast food restaurants and sometimes even asking them for extras. By doing this I couldn't tell you the last time we bought a package of napkins...and we don't eat out THAT often! Even the kids are in on this...it has become a challenge for us! Our most cherished napkins came all the way from Chicago. They have a picture of Soldier Field printed on them...maybe we'll use those for Christmas! Cheapskates you say, maybe so but it's fun! ~Jaye~

I have been doing this for years - - - only didn't make a GAME out of it, was just to tight to throw unused napkins away. I haven't had to BUY napkins for YEARS except when I wanted fancy ones for a shower or graduation party or something.
I think it is a GREAT idea.
Sorta like the prank my son was in on where the boys in Marion returned all those taco sauce packets to Taco Bell - - - -
