Cody Cody 4/16/2025 8:42 AMIt is going pretty good. I have bought a couple reusable bags, one from Walmart and one from Target. I try to keep them with me in the car so that when I do have to go to these places or others I can use them. When I first did this, I emptied out a cabinet of plastic bags my roommates and I have accumulated during the year. I was surprised to see the amount and estimated around 150 plastic bags. My goal with this challenge is to limit this waste and advocate for the use of reusable baggage.
