Refill Stores
I have found several local refill stores where you can find several items to reduce packaging waste from shampoo & conditioner to spices. If you're local to Chicago or Nashville, these are two places I have checked out that are great.
Chicago - The Unwaste Shop
Nashville - Sage Refill Market
Junk journaling
A great way to reduce waste, document life, and be creative! It's like scrapbooking but with junk. Whether it's wrappers, stickers, tickets, sugar packets, or a napkin, once you glue it or tape it to the page, it's now a documented memory. Such a fun way to commemorate your travels or your every-day while being a little less wasteful!
SMALL CHANGE, BIG DIFFERENCE
You can get these at target, marshals, online, or a local refill shop. Ultimately, you will save money not buying single use packs over and over.
Reuse a resealable plastic bag! I have rinsed these puppies out and used them again and again.
Tote Bags! Duh! I leave some in my car cause otherwise I usually forget them when I'm off to the store
Get some reusable produce bags for all that loose produce you're buying. I found mine at Marshal's, but you can find them all over.
When you do forget your tote(s) & produce bags, you can always reuse plastic bags for pets and smaller trash cans. Farewell, single-use!
