Ok so firstly I'm actually a week late updating how my pledge went!! But hey better late than never! So I managed to go a whole week remembering to either take bags or to carry stuff home!!! So I didn't have to go and clear up litter in my local playground! The funny thing is that we now have about 3 plastic bags left in the house instead of 3 sack fulls!

 

Ok so my pledge was to ensure I recycled my carrier bags by actually taking them back to the shop and reusing them.  So how have I got on so far??  Well I haven't increased my collection of bags but neither have I reused any!! Monday, David took a bag with his lunch in (nolonger buying extra sandwhich bags!) and I took a cloth bag to the shop. Tuesday same but no shop trip! Today we went to the local Post Office to post some parcels and Megan rode on Charlie's old parent handle JCB trike so the parcels were in the basket.  Which ment that the bread and milk came home in it ... thus no need for any carrier bags.  So I think I am happily making a mini difference to the world.
