WHAT IS OPEN BOX ITEM?

Open box items are not refurbished/remanufactured items. Open box items are goods that have been returned from customers after they opened the box. This prevents us from selling the item as new, and we end up having to significantly reduce the price. Once we receive an opened return unit, it is fully inspected to ensure its working condition. Item may have minor cosmetic blemishes that are still in perfect working order. You end up with a high-quality product at a significant discount

My husband and I live in a small apartment, and want to know the basics for living green. Any tips?

The key is reduce, reuse, recycle.

Reduce your purchases (of stuff and of energy). We have been encouraged to be super consumers in recent years but much of what we buy is unnecessary stuff which quickly ends up in landfill. Our parents were perfectly happy with far less stuff and keeping up with the neighbours is the cause of a great deal of stress. It also requires us to work more hours to earn the money to buy the stuff, whereas greater happiness could be achieved by spending the time with family and friends.

Reuse stuff that still has life in it rather than replace it because it is a little shabby or out of date. Learn to repair. Again keeping up with the neighbours is stressful whereas there is great satisfaction in repairing.

Recycle stuff that can no longer be reused.

Living in an apartment you will not have a lot of spare space so I recommend you Google "freecycle" and your town (for example freecycle toronto). It will probably lead you to a community of people that advertise spare stuff for collection by members of the community that can make use of it. It is a great way of reducing what goes to landfill.

Finally I recommend fresh organic food cooked at home.

I am glad you are looking for ways to be more green. Best wishes.

Would you pay more for houses that are eco-friendly, energy and water efficient and made of natural or recycled materials?

Yes I would like to live in an echo friendly subdivision, provided the cost difference is not prohibitive-10% extra cost for a house max.
