I somehow hit 500 days straight of packing a zero-waste lunch

Was looking through my calendar app last week and realized I haven't bought a single lunch since January 2023. That's like 500 containers I didn't throw away, and honestly the weirdest part is how much money I saved - probably around $2,500 just on not buying wraps and plastic trays. Anyone else keep weird climate streaks without meaning to?

That's seriously impressive, congratulations! I've got my own weird streak going with reusable water bottles - been using the same Hydro Flask since 2019 and I refill it at least three times a day at work instead of buying plastic bottles. The savings really add up when you stop and think about it, and it feels good to not be part of the waste problem.

Does your Hydro Flask have any dents too, @murray.cole?
