How to use less and reuse more
Products that you can recharge, refill and reuse many times can help you to save money in the long run – and they can also help to reduce the overall amount of waste that is created.

Refill, reuse, repeat
Rather than spend on takeout coffees and bottles of water, why not prepare your own drinks in a reusable mug or bottle? As well as your expenses, you’ll cut down on paper and plastic waste, too.
