Left over change which adds up quick or credit on a gift card.

Dad saves extra pizza for another meal.

Leftover stickers to use on new happy mail.

Another vote for food leftovers! - I love not having to cook (or even just being able to concentrate on one part of the second meal instead if coordinating everything at once.)

Leftover craft supplies is also a big one for me. - I love finding creative ways to use up bits and pieces!

Our compost bin. I'm grateful I can throw peelings in there and be rewarded with nice soil to grow something next summer.

Wrapping paper- Several years ago, Kroger was selling these massive rolls. I bought 3-4 of them. I finally started using the last of those leftover rolls this year. I wrapped over 40 gifts this year…some of which were quite large…and I still have enough leftover paper from this mega roll to wrap another 5-10 gifts.

Baking/decorating ingredients- it’s always nice to have a little or a lot left over for the next project…whether it’s sprinkles, fondant or candy melts to more useful things like unsalted butter and heavy cream.

Time - It’s always nice when things aren’t as time consuming as you anticipated and you’re given the luxury of a little leftover time to relax or get something else done.

This tiny patio was made from collecting left over Mexico brick found at auctions

And then when you purchased one more sweet potato then you needed and put the left over tuber far into the darkness of the kitchen and weeks later find it sprouting....put the left over in the ground
