Inspiration for Spending Cash From Recycled Toner Programs
Getting a check from those recycled toner program can be a great pleasant surprise in the mail, and it’s also a nice way to be rewarded for your environmentalism. Any time you get a bit of money that you weren’t expecting and you didn’t “earn” in a traditional sense, it can be interesting to dream up all the ways you could spend it. Read these three ideas for how you can get the most out of that money and figure out what’s best for your office.
The first idea would be to use some common sense and put the money from the recycled toner back into your toner and printer budget. If you recycle with a company that also sells toner, this can be a great way to seamlessly keep your supplies up. Buying new printers is also a great way to keep up on technology and invest in new equipment that doesn’t use as much toner to begin with. Use this bit of extra money to lower your total supplies cost.
Put that recycled toner back into the earth that you are saving! Turn your environmental efforts up a bit and use the money to invest in further environmental efforts in your office. Change your light bulbs over to compact fluorescent ones, buy reusable mugs for coffee, and pay for a trash recycling program from the trash management company. These little steps don’t cost a lot and keep adding to your environmental commitment and cutting waste from the landfills.
Use the money for something fun and entertaining for the office. The money is a bit of ?found? money, so use it as such. Pay for a nice office lunch to be delivered one day, or put it towards making the holiday party a bit nicer. It will make your office environment nicer!
