oops…

I use both cloth and handkerchief…:D

I use handkerchief only for face-blotting, not when I had flu.

And we’re Indonesian use water and soap to clean ourselves, so the toilet paper is used to dry the part . I substitute toilet paper with old towels (I recycled old towel, tore it into 4 pieces)….I put it inside small plastic bag after use (it can be used 2-3 times) and wash it everyday, with my panties…–I handwash them–

…. I only use this toilet-towel at home and in my office, not when I’m traveling…and not when I’m having my period

Oh yeah – did you know there are people advocating the use of cloth wipes for the toilet too? Personally I couldn’t do it.

Haha what a day to be spending in an air conditioned room! I’m not better – I can’t go to sleep without the cool air and I have to wash my hair everyday

Hi Louise I’ve shared my thoughts on both in this post comparing the Envirosax with the Rume. It could help you decide Neither feel like the lesportsac material. Its much lighter and thinner but just as sturdy. In terms of sizes, for the Rume, I like the Mini for everyday and occasional groceries and the Regular for weekly groceries and bigger bulkier items.

Hi, I am planning to get a reuseable bag for my shopping/traveling use. I been to the tinytapir website but dont know which to choose. Which brand (Envirosax or Rume) would you recommend based on your experience? Though I do think Envirosax is being mean. =)

I would prefer something lightweight, folds compact and sturdy (can withstand heavy groceries). What is the most practical size too? Are the materials used similar to those used for Le Sport Sac?

Right now, I am undecided among Envirosax singles, mini Rume and regular Rume. Thanks.

Opps there’s a typo on my name… Actually I do too. Unless you bring a few hankerchiefs out rite… I try to cut down as much wet wipes and tissues as I can… the only thing I cannot cut down is toilet paper ahahha

I keep forgetting to put my reusable shopping bags into my handbag but I do decline plastic bags whenever I can. And I don’t shower and wash my hair very often! Don’t worry, I shower before I go out to meet people. Don’t sleep in air con either.

I had several Earth Day “activities” lined up today but they all didn’t work out cuz we had to send the car to the workshop and the weather was so hot I actually slept in his mom’s air-conditioned room. First time EVER! Yes, I’m Earth’s enemy!
