Episode notes
Return Unwanted Smoothie Hats
- Return unwanted Innocent smoothie hats via the brand's freepost "Big Knit" so they get reused and benefit Age UK.
- Avoid throwing them away; Innocent gives 30p per returned hat to charity and has raised millions.
Charity Packaging Is Also Marketing
- Charity-linked packaging often functions primarily as marketing rather than pure philanthropy.
- Companies may donate per special item but could simply donate without creating extra consumer waste.
Skip The Gimmick, Give Directly
- If you don't want novelty items like smoothie hats, just buy a plain product without the gimmick.
- Alternatively, donate directly to the partnered charity instead of purchasing the themed product.
