Holiday Shopping

Smart Holiday Shopping

Holiday shopping can be hectic. But don’t stress this year. Take some time to think about gift ideas then do some research online. Plan out your shopping trips accordingly and keep in mind to shop environmentally friendly:

• Take reusable tote bags.
• Buy locally made products to cut down the amount of miles (and emissions) it takes for your products to get to you.
• Buy products with minimal packaging.
• Plan shopping excursions so that you only don’t have to make multiple trips.
• If you are shipping items, buy items that won’t require excess packaging.
• Reuse packing material like peanuts, bubble wrap, or shredded newspaper.
• Find out where to drop off your packing peanuts so that they can be reused.
