We’ve all been sucked in. We’ve all given into that one little impulse buy. The reusable bag. However, forgetting to bring the bag to the grocery store is almost inevitable for most of us … go on, admit it; you feel good about buying it, use it once and always forget to bring it with you – either leaving it in the car or at home, right?

For those of you who strive to take that extra step to save the environment, but rarely remember to bring your reusable grocery bag, there are still ways you can go green. Here are 10 ways you can recycle your plastic bag and feel better about forgetting to bring your reusable bag to the store:

2. Use a plastic bag to pack your toiletries and guard your belongings from unwanted liquids.
