I wonder how many Walmart plastic bags I've saved since moving here? You won't find plastic bags in grocery stores (or any stores) in Belgium. You can purchase reusable bags, but my days of leaving the super store with 15 plastic bags that are half full are over! Taking my own bags took some getting used to in the beginning (I always had good intentions in the states too.) There have been days I didn't stop at the store because I forgot them, or I just had to carry everything to the car. So now, I keep a stock in the car. And there's a positive spin on the bank account too...I think this has helped with frivolous spending. I only have so much space to take it all home. Maybe buying some cute bags will inspire you to grab them. These are just a few that I rotate between. I realize that black Walmart bag isn't cute, but my stock of those seem to be the ones I carry the most!
So, I challenge you this week....think before you go to the grocery store...and grab those reusable bags. Just think how many bags we can all save. Every little bit helps!
Until next time,
