- Read it. LOL. No, but seriously there are sometimes good coupons in junk mail. Yes even the valpaks and such. Take 5 seconds to scan it.
- Use it for animals. Works just like newspaper a lot of the time. Line a cat box, shred for a hamster cage, etc.
- Use it to ship something. Larger things can wrap valuables, smaller to fill in extra space.
- Scrap paper. The white letter paper (from a realtor or local business) can be turned over to print coupons on. :-)
- Make new paper from it. There's tons of advice on how to do this, just do a google search to find it.
- Use the envelopes to write your shopping list on (and then you can store the coupons inside)
- Let your toddler or small child color or paint on it. They generally don't care that there's already something written on it.
- Use catalogs and ads for kids projects or educational games.
- Use the mail to let your kids play post office with.
- Crafting. This website has a ton of stuff you can purchase, but they also have diy section.
- And of course, if all else fails recycle it.
