Grocery Shopping

Goodies from Unpackaged

Basics at Waitrose

Groceries at Sainsbury's

So I've done a bit of grocery shopping this weekend. I went to Waitrose, Sainsbury's and the absolutely lovely Unpackaged... So the garbage free (which isn't going perfectly - but I'm sure trying) lifestyle is difficult at the grocery store. But I've managed around it somewhat (except for the toothpaste tube, the cream container and the bag that the brown sugar came in -I am trying I promise). I tried to buy a snack at M&S - I couldn't buy a thing! Everything was in plastic. I think they might actually be a plastic retailer not food... I wonder if they have shares in a plastic wrap company, it would make sense.

At the Grocery Store

I went to the much despised (though not by me) ASDA today to get some groceries.  It's really hard to find things that aren't in a bag - especially fruits and vegetables, I did find some thank goodness.  I broke down a little, I went on my way home from somewhere else, so I didn't have an extra bag, so I did take one regular plastic bag.  I refrained from putting my fruits and veggies in bags (I couldn't buy organic though - it was all pre-packaged).  I bought ice cream for the first time since I moved to England.  I can recycle the carton, but not the lid.  Darn it, but it tastes oh so yummy.  Tune in tomorrow for 3 days worth of Dumpster Diving.  I'm just fighting with my camera today.
