What containers do you use the most? What do you use them for?

I use a lot of containers such as cans, tins, bottles and packets. 

I don't usually use jugs but I always have a jar of honey at home.

Now I'm going to need a lot of boxes because I want to do some work around the house and I need to clear out a room.

I used to use plastic containers to store things, but now I try using cloth bags and glass containers instead to protect the environment.

Certainly, like the majority of people, I use a lots of containers every single day.

It’s almost impossible don’t use at least one of them in your routine. 

First of all, the potable water is stored in bottles, in different sizes; vegetables, fruits, biscuits eccetera are putted inside packets made with plastic or paper; I could continue the list, but it’ll be too long. 

Anyway, only rules and regulations can help us to reduce the use/abuse of packaging.

In most cases, I use fresh food for cooking. So, I don't use containers like cartons, boxes, or tubs (the last ones only when I buy ice cream for particular occasions).
All Sundays, I spend lunchtime with my family, and we serve the food in bowls (salads or some ice cubes) and jugs for the drinks.
For exercising, I use bottles to drink water. And if I forget, I buy the energy drink, which comes in cans.
