    Any chance we can use the discount a couple days into August? I'm in St. Augustine & can only make the trip once and don't want to miss the last couple giveaways before stopping in ;)

    Focusing on learning my plastic recycling numbers this week so that I can make “good” decisions when plastic is unavoidable

    Really getting good at zero waste snacks! Proud of myself haha it makes a huge difference for us since we go out & about so much, making the switch to bulk snacks & reusable snack bags as made us create such less trash!!

    Any ideas what to do with our eco bricks? Its an awesome way to keep pastic from the landfill but now we are wondering what are we really going to do with them besides be plastic hoarders?

    I bought a huge 3.5 quart jug of olive oil today for $20 as my own way of doing bulk since I cant find bulk oil anywhere in town. Its in a large tin can, it was favorite success at the grocery store today :)

      Lucky's has a BYOJ oil and vinegar section. It's fairly small (probably 2-3 options each). I think Ward's also has the same option!

      Someone in the group feed also said they found bulk olive oil at Lucky's if you wanna check that out! Not sure if its just buy a larger supply or BYOJ

    Going out is so tough. We lucked out &got 2 dates nights in a row but we ended up with 3 plastic straws & 3 plastic cups :( how can the awareness be so low here? Do people actually know but really not care? It seems that way since we get the conversation going every time now but the problem persists...literally in our hands. Feeling discouraged :/

      It's tough, right? Even when we request no utensils, we still get them more often than not.
