No Bags Challenge - round up

July 6th, 2008 -- Posted in Challenge - no bags | 4 Comments »

Well, my month of accepting no bags from shops is up… and it was a success!

I have avoided taking any plastic bags… now, if I could just vanish the receipts as well….

The best thing to come out of this whole process is the habit I have formed. I am now used to thinking about taking a bag with me when I go shopping - in fact I now usually just have a green bag in my car. And I’ve moved to walking to the supermarket more - especially as Nick’s been away, and I’ve been buying much less food! So, I’ve developed two new positive habits that I intend to continue.

Now, if I could just cultivate the habit of not-being-messy…..

:)

Did anyone else out there do the No Bags Challenge? How did you go?
