Lighten up on the plastic bags
Thanks to my new flip & tumble bag - that now lives in my purse - I achieved a new personal record on bringing plastic bags into the house. I did the weekly family grocery shopping, specialty party shopping, and even a trip to Home Depot this weekend. And I ended up with 3 plastic bags. Just 3! And we use 2 a week! Whoo-hoo! Next week, I'm going to see if I can get away with none.

I have got to the point where I occassionally have to take a bag to make sure I have some at home. I love my Tescos big bag, it can take half the store I have noticed...
Hey that reminds me of the little crocheted bags that I got from the Sudanese in Cairo. I need to start using that thing - though it won't hold near what yours does. However, I am down to very few plastic bags myself - beginning to use my WalMart bag more often. But yours is the best of both of mine!
I had two other bags that I was using pretty regularly, but this new one is the perfect combination of strong and tiny. I used the "self check out" line at the grocery store, so I bagged everything myself. That would've made a HUGE difference in bag consumption - even without my new little bag
