Yes, I am quite partial to regular old Tampax myself. I already live without TV, a computer, a dryer and a dishwasher. But I like having a biggish car (Subaru Forester) and I simply cannot live without traveling. I just got back from 3 weeks in Hawaii, and the plane trip pretty much killed any tiny carbon footprint I would hope to leave behind. And a “here here” to the writer above about missing our freedoms!

I’m getting more concerned that we shouldn’t give up our freedoms and allow government to dabble in controlling our ability to solve many of these challenges in unique, original ways for our own families, as long as it’s not destructive to our neighbors. It’s getting to where it’s those freedoms that I’m just not willing to do without. I like that we can all try to problem-solve to suit our situations…I don’t want to do without individualism and family

– While I would give up all the things on my list when I have too, somethings will just have to wait until its a must… Thanks for playing!

For me I’d pick for #5 – feminine hygiene products. You can have them when you can tear them from my cold dead or post menopausal hands. No Diva Cups , Moon Cups, or Soft Cups for me! And while I CAN see doing cloth diapers… Yeah, that’s not going to happen!
