1. putting hamburger or sausage grease in a plastic disposable container
We will think of more later

2. Wrap chicken bones/chop bones or other scraps that quickly become smelly, in newspaper or butcher's paper and put in freezer until rubbish night.

3. Always, always, ALWAYS use a plate and cover everything you put in the microwave - use kitchen paper if the instructions say 'without a lid'. That way you hardly ever get anything on the turntable or the inside of the oven. Glass turntables are expensive to replace, and only ever get broken when taken out for cleaning.
To keep your the fridge odour free or to remove odours, keep a small open tub of bicarbonate of soda inside it.
Vacuum like an old person drives a car, carefully and slowly keeping an eye on the "road"
Apparently it does a better job ;p
Store extra bags at the bottom of your rubbish bin underneath the bag in use (it makes it easier after you take the trash out).
