I buy my coffee in bags, but went to Home Depot awhile back and bought a bunch of little red buckets from the paint section. I use them for the dog's water (2 big dogs drink a fair amount of water), and also for the kitchen scraps. No lids, so it motivates to dump them fairly regularly. One of these days I'm going to build my worm bins, and then I'll stop composting and start feeding worms instead.

My garbage company gives free curbside recycling, so I bought a 65gal wheely-bin at Lowes and that gets my recycling. I have maybe one 30gal (or smaller) bag of regular trash/week in my 95gal bin. Hilarious!

The one plastic coffee container I have, I use to store my coffee (what a novel idea!). I've used the same bin for about 4 years now. It holds 2 bags of coffee, with room for a little more. I make my own half-caf by mixing the coffee together in the container.

I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.
