- Reuse bags, boxes, tissue paper, ribbons, and wrapping paper when possible.
- Take your own dish to a potluck instead of using disposables or bring a food in a nice reusable dish and leave the dish as a gift for your host.

- Gift locally – support local businesses and items that are produced locally, and minimize the number of items you have shipped to your house.
