I refused my first plastic bag!
Posted in , clair's closet, save the environment,
The kids and I are seriously hamburger-deprived at this stage. We haven’t eaten out in a whole week. So first stop – Carl’s Jr. Since we can’t afford even the cheapest Vegas vacations, we might as well stuff ourselves silly with hamburgers, right?
I had a shopping list to fulfill after lunch. So we stopped by GNC for our vitamin supply. VIP card members get 20-25% off certain items. I’m not a card member but my credit card entitles me to a 20% discount.
The girl was about to drop my vitamins into a plastic bag when I told her, stop, I brought my own eco-tote bag.
For the record, that’s my first refusal of a plastic bag! Yes, I’m helping to save the environment and my grandchildren will be so proud of me. Yay!!

Great job. I do the same thing all the time. Why waste a plastic bag when you can bring a bag on your own. Also, some things I buy don’t even need a bag but they still try to give you one.
