Happy Housewife Tip! Reuse Your Empty Formula Cans
If you have a formula fed infant, don't just toss away empty formula cans when you're done!
Save your cans and use them to collect grease and oils from cooking pans and fry baskets! Pouring your grease or left over oil down the drain can cause build up and blockages, leaving you with drainage problems.
Simply pour greasy oily remanence, such as bacon fat, into your empty formula can and store in the freezer to avoid any smells or spills (and to free up much needed room in your fridge!) Toss when the can is full.
And for our eco-friendly recycling mommies, you can simply place a sheet of wax paper in your can before adding any grease. Once full, pull frozen drippings out along with wax paper, and you can reuse your grease can!
What other tips do you have?

Good idea!
handy! they also make good marker/crayon holders for older kids. just be sure to cover the sharp edges.
I use them to burry money in the back yard and soak my teeth in at night. Some times I get them mixed up and have to go digging in the morning.
awesome idea!
