The Green Gift Guide - Saving both Money and the Planet
It's that time of year again. Thanksgiving is over and instead of worrying about what's filling our stomachs, it's time to think about filling those stockings. Didn't want to be involved in the Black Friday extravaganza? Not to worry, large retailers are still offering lucrative deals on hot Christmas items. However, what about those who really want to save some? Save in this context meaning not only in their purses and wallets but help the environment as well? Here's some ideas:
For the Geek: Biodegradable Watches, E-Readers, Cork/Recycled iPad Cases, Ninja Flash Drives, and a complete Green PC
For the Foodie: Hand-Cranked Espresso Machine, French Press Cozies, Cheese Boards
For the Health/Wellness Guru: Recycled Gym Bags, Glass Water Bottles, Bike Share Memberships, Embroidered Yoga Mats
