Hello coffee drinkers. Anyone interested in picking up our spent espresso grounds? Coffee grounds have several worthwhile uses like deodorizing your refrigerator, adding nutrients to your plants and gardens, repelling ants, snails and slugs, dying paper and Easter eggs, a scouring agent for greasy objects, flea shampoo for your dog and, check it out - cellulite reducer. You can Google it. High priced cellulite creams have coffee in them so who knows, it just might work.
