Pass the Cheer

A year and a half ago, I spent a long weekend in North Carolina visiting my friend, Joy.

During that vacation, Pete brought up the idea of re-using his Starbucks sleeve in order to cut down on his personal carbon footprint. It seemed like a simple idea but the more I thought on it, the more I realized the positive impact I could make if I also re-used my sleeve (considering I go to Starbucks every morning). I know it's not as great as if I re-used the cup or brought my own travel mug, but...hey, it's a start!

So last December I decided to try and use the same sleeve for one year. And it's almost 5 months later and I'm still rockin' the holiday Pass the Cheer sleeve. The guys that work my Starbucks said that if I use the sleeve for the entire year they will reward me with free lattes for a week!
