[quote=Anonymous]OP here. We were home from work/school again today and I had a lot of time for household organization.

We decluttered the basement, and located in a box of items to donate/toss, a pair of matching, heavy duty potholders. They just had a few stains, but I put them through the wash and they are perfectly clean.  So, potholders achieved!

We also located a selection of tiny screwdriver bits, like about eye glasses sized, so I was able to take apart my poorly working pepper grinder.  I gave it a good cleaning, and assembled everything back together again.  I wish I could say it works like new.  Well, it works... better than it did.

Nothing purchased today by anyone.

I decluttered my kitchen too and organized the pantry to be able to do more cooking.   Although I'm not including food my Buy Nothing Challenge to myself, I am including non-essentials like vending machine snacks and takeout food.   Today marks 7 days in a row that I haven't purchased any takeout food for my family!  We have only eaten home cooked food.   As a family this has been I think our biggest impulse spending weakness, so I'm very proud of myself for that![/quote]
