33 - Reducing Waste - Reusable ziplocks


Last year I purchased some reusable bags for snacks and getting things at the farmers market etc.  They were very well received especially by my kids who think they should use them for craft supplies and toys and crayons and their spare change.  So I added more this year too.  
I have a variety of brands my favorite is probably Planet Wise although we really like the bum genius, fitfresh pand Lanspirit as well.  Mostly my kids prefer the zipping kind as they can’t really open the silicon ziplock or the Velcro very well.  My kids also love the fun prints.  
I have tossed a few into the go bag so if we need a ziplock for leftovers or collecting rocks we have it.  
They are very simple to wash - although drying is a challenge I am putting them on the old bottle dryer so the water can drain off.  I have thought about making some but honestly since they are like $10 for 3 it’s not worth my time. 
We haven’t all together quit plastic baggies but we have definently made a dent in using less.  
FYI most of these were purchased on Amazon or at Target.
