For example, I saved a bunch of these small cardboard sheets that were separating the rows of cans in a box of cat food.
Add some glue and you have a little tent for your cat.
Calling it garbage to begin with tells us more about you than it.
Is there another word for "things that most people will toss out because they don't see a use for it" that would convey the question better?
Treasure?
I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty, I've got whozits and whatzits galore. You want thingamabobs? I've got twenty!
Junk.
Ah yeah that would've been better.
Wood. So much wood, in so many forms and shapes. The garage is filled with wood. Also bits of drywall panels, duckting material, paint and so on.
Boxes. I might need them one day.
I sometimes reuse mineral water/pepsi bottles .
I'm living in a really old house, which means the floors are uneven, so I keep any little bits of wood I find, like shelves from old cabinets, paint sticks, whatever, to use as shims to keep my furniture level
I also save those cardboard pieces from between the wet food for painting on
I have a large box of random cables, probably half of which are totally obsolete. Might need 'em someday.
