What’s a paper straw?

It’s pretty good. They do like pasta and oats and rice. Standard stuff that works out cheaper without branding or packaging.

Is this near you?

YOU LOST, GET OVER IT

Ive been thinking about this a lot because it’s starting to piss me off how much packaging I generate from the supermarket. Don’t really have any tips but have been thinking that the only way to do it would be to buy directly from butchers/greengrocers and take your own materials for transporting. Would mean giving up most processed foods but that’s probably not a bad thing.

** I am way to lazy to actually do this though

An hours walk or 2 trains, but will check it out.

Ah bums!

I wanted some limes from Waitrose the other day. The only limes they sold were in a pack of 2 that came in a plastic wrapping and they were sat on a plastic tray.

what is the point

Weird, pretty sure you can get loose ones in my one. But guess it depends on the size.

Just annoying that everything isn’t loose. Like the lidl round the corner has most stuff loose but the waitrose 20 mins away does.

So strange that Iceland are leading the way to go plastic free.

reduced my plastic waste last week when I binned the 20 carrier bags in my office draw when I moved offices

You can get shampoo bars from Lush.

Great for travelling too cause they’re solid. They do solid conditioners too but i’ve not used many.

I use them and my hair is…decent. And they smell great.

By bin, you better mean the plastic bag recycling bin outside the supermarket.

We probably have slightly different hair though :grinning:

There’s loads of different ones that are supposed to be for different hair types and an over enthuastic shop assistant will talk you through them all.
