I’ve been asking what green changes you all have been making. One of the more popular changes is making the switch to reusable grocery bags.

It’s simple and significantly cuts down on waste. One trip to the store when you’ve forgotten your bags will quickly remind you just how wasteful plastic grocery bags are.

Mickey brings a grocery box with him when he shops, which is a great idea to keep things from shifting in the car and get use out of something you already have around the house.

Don’t limit your reusable bag use to just grocery shopping. If you’re going to hit the mall or the bookstore, take one along.

I love my Simple Jute Shopping Bag. What bags are you using?

Thanks, Mickey, Joan & Brenda!

I’ll be back in full force on January 2nd, but until then, I’ll be posting “best of” and reader tips.  If you have a tip you’d like to share, e-mail me at alliesanswers at gmail dot com.
