REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste

What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reuseable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to establish this a successful habit?

I gave away clothes tha no longer fit my 9 month old baby to a friend with a baby on the way. Given he is a growing baby we will always accumulate outgrown clothes, but giving them to someone I know can use them will help from having them stack up in our house. And it felt good too!
