Sentence 2 – I always check where and how a product was made. I read the labels on the clothes I buy and if I hear in the news about stores that use cheap labour, I avoid going to them. Also sentence 3 – I often shop online. I believe you can find some real bargains by shopping on websites.
A responsible shopper knows where and how the products they buy are made. They buy fair trade products. They buy products that use fewer natural resources and that don’t have unnecessary packaging. They buy second-hand goods and they recycle. Responsible shoppers don’t buy anything that is unnecessary and they don’t pay too much.

The text made me realise that I don’t think enough about where and how the things I buy were manufactured. Because of it, I will start to do some research on the big stores that I use. This will stop me paying money to companies that use child labour or have unacceptable working conditions.
