When I read Anniedeb's comment about her MIL ironing wrapping paper, it made me think of my MIL who carefully, so carefully took the tape off of wrapping paper so she could reuse it. It took her forever to unwrap a gift and drove all of us crazy.

Nope, I use cloth bags for groceries, recycle all boxes. Walmart will take back their plastic bags, Thrift store will also take them. As far as boxes they do attract bugs, plus they all start to smell after a while. If I order something from Amazon I save the box for a few days to make sure the item works and decide if I'm keeping it.
