OK, we know it's cold out there right now, and the blue recycle bin is out in the garage. I really don't like bringing the cold air into the house each time I put an empty soda can in the bin. So, I went out to buy another 13-gallon trash can for the kitchen (and another matching one)--but only for recycled items. And to my surprise...
I'm recycling more!

All the junk mail, newspapers I don't read, shredded docs, bottles, food boxes and smaller items are so much easier to recycle when the bin is right there in front of you! After just one day of doing this, I think 80% of my trash is going into recycling! And it keeps my house warmer :)
