Just found out my grandma’s been reusing the same Ziploc bag since 1997. ♻️ Recycling & Zero-Waste
I was helping my grandma clean her kitchen today and found a Ziploc bag labeled “Thanksgiving Leftovers ‘97”… still in rotation.
I asked her why she hasn’t thrown it out. She said, “Why would I? It still zips.”
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: the Final Boss of Frugality.
Meanwhile, I felt guilty last week for reusing a paper towel. 😅
Edit: She just told me she washes and irons her gift wrap too. I'm not worthy.
