CLOSED: Going Green with CVS (+ Gift Pack Giveaway)

The Buzz:

With Earth Day right around the corner, the buzz around the Blogosphere is GREEN! Sadly after the excitement dies down and we slowly creep into the month of May, the drive, for many, to stay GREEN dwindles.

My family has been trying to inculcate a "greener" approach towards a lot of things in our home. As parents we understand that Bunny girl and Bunny Boo will naturally be more environmentally conscious if we make the effort to make 'Earth care' a way of life.

Something we have begun doing is minimizing our use of plastic bags and with the Green Bag Tag, the awesome new program initiated by CVS, both the Earth and the customer benefit!


How it works:

Each time you shop at CVS and carry out your purchases in a reusable bag or just carry out your purchases (basically when you decline the use of a plastic bag for your purchases.), show the cashier your CVS ExtraCare Card and your Green Bag Tag (the small, leaf-shaped tag made with 100 percent recycled and renewable materials).
On your 4th shopping trip, a 1$ ExtraBuck will print out at the cash register for use on anything in the store.

I personally think this is such a motivating way to get people to switch over completely to reusable bags.


That's Not All!

Now many of you may not know this but your favorite CVS store does carry their own range of earth friendly alternatives to many products that you use in your daily life. You can find these under their line- Earth Essentials.

This is a line of eco-friendly products providing high quality, green alternatives to everyday cleaning and household items. All the products are manufactured using an ecologically aware process with natural renewable ingredients and are packaged in recyclable bottles.


We had the opportunity to take a look at the Earth Essentials bowls, paper towels, toilet roll paper and kitchen bags.


Lets talk Green:

Earth Essentials bowls are made from sugarcane, are water resistant, oil resistant, microwaveable and biodegradable. Their paper products are made with 100% recycled fibers and are Greenpeace recommended. The durable trash bags are also environmentally friendly as they fully biodegrade in 2 years time.

I know eco-friendly products are not always economical but if you plan your purchases well and stock up when CVS has these on sale, you CAN buy these at prices you'd ordinarily buy your regular supplies at.


Buy it:

You can buy Earth Essentials products online or in your closest CVS Pharmacy.
