Reusable Bags!
Plastic is an amazing product that’s for sure. But!.... here’s the problem it’s so great it doesn’t break down! So think about how many things are made of plastic and how much each person uses and throws away every day! Where does it all go? Can you go a whole day without using plastic?
I decided one small way our family can make a change is limiting our bag usage for starters.
For our lunches for school, zoo, pool or where ever I bought these cute snack and sandwich bags. I chose these after much review. There is a silicone version available as well too that has a tight close like a zip lock bag. Reviews said there were issues with the seams tearing and the food getting smashed from the tight design. I didn’t feel like dealing with the hassle of returning and getting more. The cloth bags are a little roomier and have a zipper closure.
A lot of the bag designs were hand wash only as well. I liked these fabric ones because they were machine and dishwasher safe!! Perfect for the busy mom.
I also liked these because they gave you three sizes for a great price! And I like the fun designs over the clear bags haha. I started with two sets and plan to see how they hold up.
I also decided to start bringing my own bags. I have two little tote ones folder up for quick trips and I have my large and deluxe utility totes from my time with 31. They are awesome because they are so durable and can hold all the grocery weight. So some of you might be thinking well I do grocery pick up or quick click or something right? I do too and I just plan on helping switch out into my big bags so they can reuse the plastic bags for the next customer.
About a year ago I bought these mesh bags to organize the diving toys, goggles and sunscreens in my beach bag. Since there are 6 in a set I now use the extras for all my fresh produce at the grocery!
I hope this post helps someone in search of the perfect bags!!
