Lesley Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 After having to use a vast amount of freezer bags to freeze our pork the other week, on top of the fact that it was already in a poly tray and cling wrapped I thought I'd better look around to see what packaging I could find. I found degradable food/freezer bags at Goodness Direct. I've been ordering all my household stuff from them for a while - their delivery is excellent, but I'd not noticed these before. Check them out here (and if anyone would like to order and quote my 'Tell a Friend Gift Ref' of CC07610W, I will receive some organic chocs - I need all the chocolate I can get ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I got some biodegradable bags after using the site on Lesley's recommendation. I bought medium bags but they were actually the size of Tesco small bags. Next time I will get large ones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I've ordered some large bags now and quoted your reference Lesley. I wonder how many boxes of chocolates you'll get! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Thanks Ginette! I really need all the chocolate I can get at the moment! They also do biodegradable nappy sacks which we use for dog poo bags - Boots hadn't got any last time I went in and Goodness Direct are out of them as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Lesley how many nappy sacks did you order!!! What are you feeding Jazz!!??? I ask as i went to order some and they are all out!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 I didn't order any - they were already out of stock It wasn't me - perhaps one of the Mums forums has mentioned them and they've sold out? Jazz is on BARF and produces less than she would on other, processed, food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 We are quite lucky that Joe's a pharmacist really He brings home the bags that come with colostomy equipment (as they send loads of them) and they are ideal little biodegradable black bags about the same size as a nappy bag. Got handles too so you can swing them in the air as you walk to the next poo bin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannie Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I've bought bio-degradable compost caddy liners, but only from a website. Does anyone know of any shops that sell them? I need some more soon and don't want to pay postage if I can avoid it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleHen Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I buy Ecover ones - our local farm shop and health stores sell them.... for composting? yep - they actual start to disintergrate if you don't change them quick enough after putting tea bags in I can't quite remember - but I think they are called composting bags.... In fact: here you go.... Ecover Compost Bags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannie Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Thanks - yes they sound like the same ones - mine start to disintegrate too sometimes! In fact when I think about it I always have to rinse the caddy out when I empty it because it always has a puddle in the bottom. And when I think about that - I think - why am I using liners in the first place??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
