REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Use Reusable BagsHow difficult was this challenge for you? What made it easy or difficult?
Karen Barlotta 7/24/2019 3:38 PMThis challenge was more difficult than I expected because if I didn't have a reusable bag with me, than I found that the only option I had was to use the bags a store provided. A good tip I have is to keep a reusable bag in your computer bag when at work. -
