If you still read a newspaper, what do you do with it after you have read it?

If you no longer read a newspaper because you now prefer the online version, what did you use them for after you finished reading them?

Me? I use them to clean my glass and I also use them when I cut open a watermelon. (I am SUCH a backwoods country girl). When I had a dog, I used to use them to potty train my dogs...gross.

We get it on Sundays. I always save them to put on my student's tables when we paint or do anything else messy. In the winter we save some to use some for the fireplace.

We rarely get a paper these days but if we do, we mostly use it for compost or to line flowerbeds/garden with. Worms love it.

I recycle them, but I also use them on the floor when I'm dyeing my hair and such.

Shred it in the paper shredder and then put it out with our recycling or use it for paper mache.

We save most of them for our common backyard fires but I recycle when my bin gets too full. I also like having a collection of old ones for crafts like painting or cutting pictures out.

Recycle them, just like the rest of the paper products in our house.
