TIP#1: BUY LESS

An obvious one, but have you considered buying less? Do you really need that extra pair of jeans or another toy for your child?

 

TIP#2: NOTHING NEW

Don’t buy new things; replace if needed or buy second hand. If something breaks, try to repair it before replacing.

 

TIP#3: SELL SECOND-HAND 

Donate or sell anything you don’t need, to fuel the second-hand market for everyone.

​

TIP#4: PACK AWAY SHOPPING BAG

Bring your own bag for shopping. I keep two pack away shopping bags in my handbag at all times. Simple to use and takes up no space.

​

TIP#5: CLOSE TO HOME

Shop locally and support the farmers market and smaller shops in your neighbourhood.
