The last time I was at Dollarama I was looking at all the plastic toys and convenience items. I can’t remember exactly what it was that made me go, “this is what we’re destroying the planet for??” But it sure applies to a lot of stuff there.
I always buy stuff used, not just because it’s cheaper, but also because I don’t want to contribute to the waste we create. I’ve only ever purchased one piece of furniture new; my bed frame because I was sick of mattress-on-the-flooring it after breaking up with an ex.
The question at the end should be asked a lot more, preferably BEFORE buying junk.
