The egg white list above makes me miss all the great cooks who used to post here.

Joe, it is "waste not, want not" in my kitchen, too! Once I discovered my former catering partner
pitching egg whites, we 2 immediately sat down for a lesson on how to freeze the things. I also consistently wash and re-use Ziplock bags, and Mary Ann hadn't thought of that either.
I no longer recycle paraffin, but when I was a little girl and Mom would make jams or jellies, she would seal the tops of the jars with melted paraffin. Then whenever we'd open a fresh jar of jelly, the solidified paraffin would be removed and promptly washed, dried and saved in an empty coffee can to be remelted and reused during our next jelly or jam-making session. I was just thinking about this the other day when I pitched a small piece of paraffin--I'm sure Mother was turning over in her grave! ha!

cheezz, unlike whites, egg yolks takes a smidge of prep work before freezing. Add either salt or
sugar to the yolks you want to save and g-e-n-t-l-y mix into your yolks. Then freeze. Here is a site that gives a much more detailed explanation so I'll post below for you.
It has been years since I've had any yolks left over to freeze, but my grandmother used to freeze them to use later in her "from scratch" egg noodles. Oh, my, were her chicken and noodles to die for. I wish now I'd had her teach me to how make her noodles. I would help roll and cut the dried noodles, but Gram always stirred up the dough.
