How we Promote Sustainable Shopping
At the Till
Every second-hand purchase shows the CO2 saving on the customer facing display. See the How we Calculate CO2 Savings page for more detail.
On the App
Total CO2 savings for all your charity shops on the app’s Green tile, and donor’s individual CO2 savings from sales of their donated items in the Awards tile
What do charity retailers think?
“Being able to tell a customer how much CO2 they’ve just saved by buying second hand rather than new is really effective. It’s a very direct way to communicate the environmental benefits of charity shops.”
