Andrea Markiewicz 7/29/2022 7:24 PMReady to ditch disposable razors? I use a Rockwell adjustable safety razor. It has a similar feel to a disposable razor so it was easy to make the switch. https://getrockwell.com/-

Andrea Markiewicz 7/28/2022 1:18 PMSo I don't have a link for this deal, but for my laundry and dish washing needs, I use https://sheetslaundryclub.com/. I live alone, so I don't actually have a subscription (that would be way too much product for me), but if you join, you can get 10% off your first purchase. I use the laundry sheets for my detergent and the dish soaps and coconut scrubbers for my dishes. Even with my hoofstock grossness, these sheets get my pants clean! -
Andrea Markiewicz 7/22/2022 5:16 PMAll my favorite plastic-free companies are offering some great plastic-free July deals! For my toothpaste, I use Bite toothpaste bits. They do a great job cleaning my teeth and are super convenient. They also sell bamboo toothbrushes, floss, mouthwash bits, whitening gel, and deodorant. I just got this code today to get 20% off the Daily Habits essentials. It's only good for this weekend, so make the switch today if you haven't already! https://bite.tiny.ps/38XSke use the code: BIGSMILE -

REFLECTION QUESTIONCommunityWhat did you find out about your plastic consumption by using the calculator? What did or didn't surprise you?
Andrea Markiewicz 7/05/2022 3:01 PMWhen I used the plastic consumption calculator, I learned that I use less plastic than I thought, which, yay! But I still have improvements to make, mostly in the kitchen. I knew this was my weakest link, but I didn't realize how much plastic was produced there.
