Mightynest.com has a monthly subscription that I think is not worth it for going greener. But they have an introductory offer members can share with others which sometimes offers a choice of free Stasher bag, dryer balls or one other thing. I am not a member anymore, just did it a few times to get things I knew I wanted. But maybe you can ask on social media if any friends have offers to extend. The intro offer is free usually, sometimes $3 I think.

Costco carries the Pyrex square and round glass containers that have locking lids. They get marked down a few times a year. The squared set has a small rectangle that nicely fits a Kerrygold butter brick, btw. I was thrilled to figure that out
I have a MightyNest subscription. I've enjoyed getting something for me over the years, since I don't do makeup or other things so Ipsy & the like are out for me. I'd be happy to send referral links.

I also subscribe to Grove Pantry. They are all about sustainable and recycle and reducing plastic. I can refer here too.

We use 31 bags for Costco trips instead of boxes.
Dryer balls
Stasher bags (Honestly, I'm in a phase of make it easy, so washing bags is not high on my list. I got some on clearance at our local pharmacy.
reusable straws - plastic and silicone both are way better than glass
Mason jars for everything!
I have the glass snap-loc from Costco and love them.
Stainless steel containers I got from Mighty Nest are some of our favorites. I've seen them in the local grocery store as well. U-Konserve I think is the brand.
Cotton wash clothes for cleaning up in the kitchen and a different color for bathrooms.

There's probably more, but I need to run.
