A Busy Day/Weekend Lies Ahead and COMPOST BIN DILEMA

Since last Sunday I have been wrestling with my frugal self about whether to buy a compost bin.

I have put a post on Freecycle, but to no avail.  My local council are selling them for approx £20, including p and p. I do have a green wheelie bin, into which I can put my mown grass.  However, as I have re-started cooking from scratch, I am generating more kitchen waste and like the idea of composting that.

Is it worth buying a compost bin?  What do you think???

Today I have to/shall:
  • Clean the kitchen;
  • Clean the lounge;
  • Clean stairs and landing;
  • Clean the bathroom;
  • Write 5 personal report comments;
  • Calculate current personal finances position.
  • Take a parcel to the Post Office;
  • Ring mechanic about brake lights not working;
  • Food shopping
  • Mow the lawn.
  • Laundry.
What a fun life I lead.

  1. We bought the first compost bin that we had at home from the council. It must be around 6 years old now, and was emptied and brought with us when we moved. It has definitely been worth the money.

    1. What, through personal experience, have you found works particularly well in it and what would you avoid, Scarlet?
