Just let a few sheets of old newspaper soak it up and burn it in the stove or the barbecue, done. Have none of those, just throw the hardened paper in the trash.

Hmm, you know, how many people actually have newspapers lying around anymore?

Edit: forgot about the junk mail!

Just sign up for the local church's newsletter or use the spam in your mailbox with the local grocer's weekly deals. It's free garbage!

Oh those ones in the mail? Yeah I guess those are probably pretty similar paper!

I use them to wrap my fish, works great to prevent freezer burn.

Forget that, you guys have a stove or a barbecue? I have no place to burn anything

Also you don't destroy your sewage treatment facilities that way.
