Note added to goal Use reusable shopping bags each time I go to a store for a month
This took me two months to finally accomplish! I learned to put my bags in the passenger seat so when I run out real quick to the store, they're there and I see them. I also saved the bags that oranges and onions come in and use them for produce.
Better late than never!!!
