This weeks landfill bag weighed in at 204g, so only just over my target.
The main culprits were again non-recyclable plastics.
6 crisp packets
1 paracetamol blister pack
2 sore throat lozenge blister packs
pasta shapes bag
2 bags which fish and flour had been in
2 cheese wrappers
chicken wrapper
and although a couple of these can be found in less weighty wrappers (cheese in clingfilm), sore throat lozenges (plasticised paper); these were what were available when I made the purchases.
I am not too concerned that I'm over my target, but will again look at what I'm purchasing and consider other options.
When in Tesco last night I noticed that their value 2 pack kitchen roll was the same price as their own label recycled kitchen roll.
Well done again Maisie; it's only a fraction above your target - I hope someone hasn't been too unwell wiht those paracetamol and throat sweets.
