Waste paper

Over the course of a week, you can accumulate a pile of newspapers, leaflets, receipts, boxes and other waste paper that should be sent for recycling rather than stored at home.

Little things all over the apartment

It's worth walking around your home and collecting useless little things: buttons, used batteries, parts from broken toys, etc.

Withered flowers

If all the tricks for extending the "life" of a bouquet have been used up and the flowers have really turned into hay, it's time to get rid of this unattractive sight. The Japanese get rid of the bouquet after a week, because they believe that wilted plants attract negativity into the house.

Cosmetic bottles

Some housewives have a habit of leaving empty bottles of shampoo or shower gel. It seems that they can supposedly come in handy in the future or they just don’t get around to throwing them away.
