Whenever I am baking, I take the margarine or butter wrapper, fold it, and put into a plastic Ziploc bag then into my freezer. That way I always have buttered paper on hand to grease my pans with.

I save my empty butter stick wrappers in a zip lock bag in the freezer. They usually have just enough to grease a cake pan with.
Save the wrappers from your bar butter or margarine after you have used up the bar and store them in a baggie in the freezer.
Save your wrappers for stick butter. The next time you need to grease a pan before baking, open it up and spread it butter side down over the whole dish.
