    My biggest advance is I am remembering to take in my reusable shopping bags when I visit grocery stores and more!  They are always in the trunk of my car, but I often forget them and have SO many plastic bags cluttering my closet at home.  This challenge helps me remember to take the reusable bags in with me!

      I have the same problem.  I hsve started loading groceries back into the cart and loading directly into the truck when i forget my bags.  Then I can run in and get a bag at home once I get there.  Or make someone come help me carry stuff in!
