No new shoes began through a conversation between Anna and myself, after we read about Judith Levine not shopping for a year. It kinda blossomed from there.
It was fun - lots of people were interested and some even left comments on our blog.
But now.... Methodist Conference thinks it's a good idea for ALL, yes, ALL Methodists in Britain to give up shopping for luxuries during Lent 08.
Little things get bigger. That's how we change the world.
Soon we'll think of a way for people to sign up and pledge to reduce their carbon footprint by dropping shopping during Lent next year. So do watch this space, as we gear up to gearing down for Lent 08.
Hey - and if you're not a Methodist, we don't mind - join in anyway.
Gone shopping?
Or has no new shoes changed our habits?
