In several ways. First, in our bank account. Yay stimulus payment! It may or may not do what the government wants, but it still came at a much-needed time for us.
Secondly though, I finally bought some canvas shopping bags when I was at the grocery store. Now, I'm not a huge pro-"green" type. Not because I think saving resources isn't important, but I'm just kinda turned off by the trendiness of it. At least it's trendiness with some positive outcomes, perhaps, but still. Certain things I can and will do, and certain things I can't/won't. A more fuel-efficient car would be wonderful, but this one is *paid for*, and no matter how many people say that a more efficient vehicle would pay for itself - it may well, no doubt - I'd still have a car payment that I don't currently have (ditto things like new windows in the house).
Aaaanyhow.
The shopping bags, I like. They hold a LOT, and seem very sturdy. Win-win, if you ask me. And bonus - the woman ahead of me in line today at the grocery store saw my bags on the belt and decided to get some too. She said I guilted her into it, LOL. They are nifty bags, though, and would make good beach bags and things like that in addition to grocery shopping bags.
Hope the Brookshire's folks won't go weird on me if I go there with my HEB bags. :D
