This year I finally quit my plastic grocery bag habit. I don’t know why it took this long. I take the box that holds our old newspapers for recycling and haul groceries in it. Unfortunately, I also got a job this year that requires a commute by car. I’m still trying to figure that one out.

Oh cool! A grocery box is a good idea.
Depending on where you live, car travel is sometimes a necessary evil. I had a tip on eco-motoring awhile back — http://alliesanswers.com/tip-of-the-day/tip-of-the-day-practice-eco-motoring/456
Every green change you can make helps even out the things you can’t change.

I, too, have “bagged” the plastic bag habit this year and proudly walk into the grocery store with my reusable cloth bags.
I have also started using concentrated laundry detergent to minimize plastic bottle waste. Also, due to your suggestions, Allie, I have switched to more eco-friendly cleaning supplies.
Overall, I’m much more cognizant of the waste we produce and am always thinking of how I can reuse something before throwing it out.
