Total cost for ordering a Trashie bag
I’ve only just placed an order for one Trashie Bag. I just thought it worth reporting the costs involved for others who might be thinking about participating, since the upfront costs are not presented until you’re halfway through ordering. It’s not that I object to the costs, it’s just not a simple $20 for a bag. Added to that base cost is $.82 to offset carbon, $3 for shipping, and in my case in California, $1.75 for sales tax. Grand total $25.57. I normally take my unwanted clothes etc. to local thrift stores (and buy there, too), but I realize they cannot sell everything that is donated. Trashie seems to be a system where more of the stuff may be reused, recycled, etc.
