Get To Know Your Neighbors
For so much of my life I didn't bother pursuing friendships with neighbors because I thought I probably would have nothing in common with them.

Compared to others, I am new to recycling or green living. I learn more each day. Many people say they don't have time to recycle. Help them get started.

Share Your "Buy One Get One Free" Purchases
If you take advantage of the buy one get one free option offered in some stores, why not think about sharing the second one with an elderly neighbor trying to live on a fixed income, or the family down the street who's trying to make it on unemployment through job loss?

Neighborhood Barter Bulletin Board
Do you live in an apartment complex or close knit neighborhood? Start a barter bulletin board in a clubhouse or pass flyers or newsletter in the neighborhood. Times are hard and someone might have something you need in exchange for something they need.

Autism Support Groups
I have a daughter who is 10 years old and the light of my life. She also was diagnosed with autism at age 2. I am looking to see if there are any parents I could talk with out there who have an autistic child. I really have no one to talk to and share my thoughts with. I am basically looking for a sympathetic ear, someone who understands what I am going through. Thanks.

Information About 4H
I was sort of surprised to see -0- records returned in my search for 4H! My neighbor is a 4H Craft Lady and I went to their potluck last night as a guest! It was great! I would like to find 4H info, crafts, tips, and ideas. Thanks!

Make a Habit of Returning Cart from the Parking Lot
I really don't think this is a tip. It's more of a suggestion for all of us to help where we can. I was at Walmart yesterday. I've made it a habit to pick up a shopping cart that's wandering around, and loose in the park lot, to use in the store. As I was going in, I noticed one of the employees was out trying to collect stray shopping carts.
