Kevin Surbaugh at Becoming & Staying Debt Free presents Recycle Almost Anything & Save Money – In my community, the county hazardous waste program gives away the recycled paint… So I was able to get 5-gallons of paint to paint my shed… The remodeling work was completed in late April, and I just got myself around to paint it. My choices of colors were limited, as they mix all the paints they receive together. They did have the colors of each bucket on the lid, so you could view the color, however as I said it was limited. I chose a greyish color as blue was not an option. It still looks decent and you can’t beat the price.
