Think about the effect of your purchases on the environment when you shop. Items with excess packaging and products that need to be discarded after only a few uses cost more money, use up valuable resources and create more waste. Remember, ten cents of every shopping dollar is used to pay for packaging.
Small sizes use more packaging for each ounce of product than larger sizes.
So, if you buy large sizes, you save money, reduce waste, and help the environment. That is a really good buy. Here are a few good examples, look for others the next time you shop. Buy cereal in a large box instead of in individual serving sizes. Buy juice in concentrates and use reuseable containers instead of single serving packages.
