These Plastic Free July posts were from a series featured on the Santosha Instagram profile and Facebook page. They are short and sharp posts intended to share how I have minimised the usage of plastic in my life.
Who loves shopping??? I’m talking about “fun shopping”. Clothes 
shoes 
handbags 
stuff for the home 
anything!
I don’t really love shopping. But every now and again, we’ll do a bit of a big spree. Most of the time I try to decline the plastic shopping bags they give us. I’ll carry my purchases until someone offers me a big paper bag, something that can really be reused.
Some uses for big, paper bags:
Wrapping presents instead of paper
Reusing for other shopping
Collect other paper for recycling then recycle it all together
Use it for kitchen scraps then compost the whole thing
Line your bin with it instead of plastic
Use it for kids art and craft
