Mavi in NYC was one, Lululemon is another. </p> <p>I save up paper shopping bags for just this purpose. I use reusable recycled totes for grocery shopping, at Target, etc., but I've never thought to take a reusable bag with me clothes shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-526052 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 21:59:24 +0000 Lisa 526052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job!

I need to muster the enthusiasm to do my wardrobe x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525891 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 20:05:58 +0000 Janet 525891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, I like that! Although I gotta get a run in today too, so 1) three miles, 2) wine, and 3) nap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525887 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 20:03:25 +0000 Transcona Shannon 525887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoo hoo!

I have 2 bags going at the moment and really could double up the effort. </p> <p>QM - The only time I ask for a shopping bag is when I know I have donates to collect. I use reusable shopping bags ALL THE TIME. Otherwise I'd be buried alive in bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525878 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:59:17 +0000 Queen Mum 525878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>that is quite liberating.. I do have to say though I'm having a hard time seeing you let go of all those nice paper bags as here in San Jose the new law is that stores are not allowed to give you bags.. you have to pay for them. I've become a bag hoarder :-)</p> <p>me to kids.... "what do you think you're doing with that bag?"<br /> kid..."throwing it away"<br /> me..."AHHHH, absolutely not!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525870 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:50:16 +0000 kellygirl 525870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How liberating! I just finished a sweep like that too--only it included DD's and DH's stuff too : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525868 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:48:07 +0000 bj1111 525868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so many congrats....doesn't it feel as though a ton of weight has been lifted? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fruits-of-my-labor#post-525867 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:47:14 +0000 Janet 525867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last night's little closet purge turned into a major effort today -- 9 big bags ready to donate! I even tackled the coat closet. </p> <p>Whew. I need a nap. Or a glass of wine. </p>
