Borrow Stuff

July 1, 2021/0 Comments/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

Organizing tipBorrow instead of buy. The concept of borrowing doesn’t only apply to library books. I often borrow my sister’s sewing machine and my friend’s garden tools. This allows me use of these items without having to store, organize, or maintain them. This tip works best if it’s for something you use occasionally. If you use a small item more than four times a year it’s worth owning.  A larger item requires more usage before being worthy of purchase.
