I actually use the reusable cup since lots a couple of years already … only buy single use ones if I have forgotten my cup at home. I also stopped buying take-away coffee when I am out.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use Reusable BagsWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?

I carry them in the hands or my handbag (at least as much as I can), if I have to buy a bag I buy the big reusable ones. I should probably put a reusable one in my handbag and backpacks, too.
