I would like to be in on this!
Today I put a rubbish bag by the back door with the plan of having it full by next Friday (rubbish day) with things from the backyard, so far I have put 4 things in.
This morning I threw away an old dog blanket and a toy

Very productive two minutes this morning. Threw out about 50 plastic grocery bags that I have been hoarding to use as daily garbage bags. I can't believe it took me so many years to realise that I only need to save about three a week for the non-organic and non-recyclable waste.

Went through one basket of the freezer and took out 1 frozen cooked up slab of freezer burnt something that used to be food.
Total:7
ETA- I forgot- I also threw out a plastic fork I had been carrying around in my lunch bag for months,.
Total:8
BTW I am only counting things that are outside the normal. I don't have a problem with day to day rubbish but I am really blind to all the extra unnecessary stuff I have.
