September 2007 Newsletter

In this issue:
  • It's not easy buying green
  • Cut costs by making things last
  • Where to recycle paint




It's not easy buying green. We recently sent our secret shoppers to stores around the U.S. to find products that make environmental claims. Our analysis of those products revealed that some are not as green as they could be. Get the full story.

Cut costs by making things last. Find out how to squeeze another year or more out of the things you already own and postpone the costly day when you have to replace-and ultimately dispose-of them. Read on for expert tips.





Where to recycle paint.
If you've got partially used cans of old paint or stain sitting around in storage and you want to know how to safely dispose of them, we've got some answers for you.



Look for Consumer Reports ShopSmart's "Guide to Green" in the October/November issue on newsstands September 11.
