I am a student who doesn’t necessarily want to spend much time on the thought of what to buy when, where and how. Since I live a Zero Waste Lifestyle, that luxury requires some preparation in order for it to become a convenient routine. I have created a list of essential shopping tools and a list of things to buy in the beginning of the month in order to prevent unhealthy eating habits at the end of the month. I present to you: The Ultimate Shopping Guide for Students
What to take when going on a Zero Waste shopping spree:
- Washable, reusable bags to put your groceries in (I use my colourful pillowcases)
- A few mason jars or something similar to put flour, grain, spices, liquid like soap or oil in. Try to find a reusable wine carrier to carry them.
- Bring a few small cloth bags for nuts and herbs.
What to buy in bulk at the beginning of the month:
