How much money are we saving by doing this ? Plastic is pretty cheap.

The intent is to reduce plastic waste at a personal level. As I said in the post, the savings is a secondhand aspect. I just want to reduce my plastic waste.

I think the title is a bit misleading bc it says save money first then reduce plastic.

I wouldn't say it's not worth it , I think more of a personal win but pretty marginal overall as most plastic waste is via fish nets etc outside of individuals control.

Excellent point on the title of the post. But I disagree on your second point. My rational to post was about my personal win fs, but also sharing it in away that sets a small example on how personal choices can have a positive impact. It feels important to me to offer examples of change in action. I thought it was a pretty low key example tbh. :)
