Go Big!

It would be unreasonable to think that I can't buy things or throw things away, but one thing that's helped me is buying in bulk.  I really helps with the amount of trash I have, plus it saves energy on the other end

Bulk products reduce the amount of waste going into landfills and take less energy and other resources to produce while offering shoppers lower prices.

Statistics show we generate about 80 million tons of waste from packaging and containers every year, which is almost a third of the country's municipal solid waste. And besides the waste products themselves, the manufacture of all those boxes, cans, cartons and labels that end up in landfills also wastes energy and resources. When you buy in bulk and reuse storage containers, it clearly contributes positively to our planet's health.

And it contributes to your pocketbook as well. By not paying for all that individual packaging, labeling and advertising, you get more product for your money.

So if it's possible, when you buy, buy in bulk!
