  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use Reusable Bags
    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'm starting to keep at least one reusable bag in my purse, which is a bigger purse, but they also make small bags that fold up into a key chain! Super great idea to make sure you won't get caught without a reusable bag!

    Went grocery shopping yesterday, and only needed 4 reusable bags to hold all my groceries! Skipped the plastic and got all my stuff into the apartment with one trip from the car!

    I'm stopping at the store after work today, got my reusable shopping bag in my purse so I won't need to use any plastic bags!
