Day 68 - Spare a Dime

First, purchase something organic, gourmet, ethnic, blooming, ripe from the earth, fresh from the sea - anything you'd like - at  Whole Foods Market.  Have it packed in a recyclable paper bag.  Come back again with that brown bag and buy anything, maybe something locally grown, gluten free, grains scooped from a bin, or dinner.  Instead of pocketing the dime you could recoup from reusing your bag, consider giving it back.  Whole Foods Market at 91st & Metcalf in Overland Park, KS, picks 2 or 3 different bag refund recipients per year and the winner right now is. . . The Benjamin Banneker Charter Academy of Technology in Kansas City! It's a school where learning is paramount and academics are rigorous.


 My recylced brown bag. . .

Time program.
