Look for products with minimal, recyclable or reusable packaging. Check out the bulk section. Avoid pre-portioned packages of snacks. You can portion these treats into reusable containers yourself, cutting out waste and saving money. May 11: Use reusable shopping bags for groceries, clothes, gifts, office products and more, keeping plastic bags out of the waste stream. If you forget to bring your own bag, see if your grocery store recycles plastic bags _ many do.
