This time I want to challenge you to think about bags in terms of waste and what you can do differently with them! Consider switching to REUSABLE BAGS for shopping, LAUNDRY/MESH BAGS for produce and PAPER BAGS for other projects such as wrapping paper or crafts!
Reusable bags are usually cute and inexpensive! They come in all shapes and sizes from snack bags to lunch bags to grocery bags!
And here is a link to an Etsy Search for: Reusable Bags
If you are really organized (and I am not) you may
want to invest in this system: The Tote Buddy
I purchased several laundry/mesh bags (intended for delicate items in the wash) at Target for less than $2 and use them for my produce at the farmers market.
A few more thoughts:
*If you need a liner for a small trash can…use a grocery bag from the store instead of purchasing them. Click HERE for a cool way to fold them to store in your car, purse, stroller, around the house and at the bottom of your small trash cans to replace as you go!
What are your thoughts on bags, bags, bags?
Disclaimer: I must confess that I forget to bring my reusable bags into the store ALL THE TIME…in fact it is a miracle when I do remember…so just do your best!
Happy Memorial Day and thank you to those who have served our country…especially those who have lost their lives and given so much…thank you does not seem to say enough.
