What's In My Sustainable Bag
Do you want to reduce the amount of plastic that you use whilst out and about?
Here is my list of essentials which I bring with me whilst I am out of the house.
It may seem like a lot, however being prepared is a great way to reduce the amount of single use items which you need!
Try adding a few of these items into your every day bag. These won't be necessary for everyone, pick and choose what suits you and your lifestyle.
Reusables
Everyday Essentials
Oxo-Biodegradable Dog Poo Bags
Food Shopping
Cotton Produce Bag - Variety Pack of 3
Other bits I never leave the house without...
A Reusable Shopping Bag - I have them everywhere so I never forget one - in my car, my handbag, by the door....
Recycled Elastic Hair Ties - I recently learned that you can cut old tights horizontally which will make perfect little hair ties, genius!
Snacks from home - I find one of the biggest ways in which I buy single use packaging is when I get hungry and need a snack. Best thing to do if you are like me is pre-pack snacks from home in metal tins or a reusable bag (or even fruit loose in your bag, it has natural packaging!)
My phone - I always have my phone with me so I can find zero waste shops and ethical cafes nearby
