I use 4 family size tea bags to make my tea for "Ice tea". After that, then I still use them to make hot tea (there is still enough tea left in them to make 6 or cups, per each tea bag). After that, I throw them into the compost bowl. I try not to waste anything, an use it in some form or fashion, to benefit me, and Mother Nature. -
What about used coffee grounds and paper coffee filters?

Both of these are great to add to a compost pile. I have been doing it for years.

I know what you mean. Recyclebank is such a useful tool. We learn so much about what is and is not recyclable. I also enjoy earning points.
