I am also a BIG fan of the reuseable bags. I go shopping and no matter how much I buy, which is always more than I went for, I have enough bags. I have one with me at all times now.

I had to stop one day after work and had forgotten to put one in my purse so before I shopped I had to look for one. The store I went to was being remodeled and I couldn’t find one to buy. I even asked for help and they couldn’t find it either. I went next door and found one there bought it then continued my original shopping.

They are great.

Thanks for the great “gift wrapping” idea. I think that is a fun way to get friends and family members hooked on reusable bags…

Hi Lena, I am a big believer in the reusable bags also. I have several and use “other store brands” at different stores. They are so strong and sturdy and convenient. I have a fold up one in my purse also. When a friend of mine had her birthday this summer, I “wrapped” her gift in a Fred Meyer cloth bag, because she hadn’t gotten any yet!

Great blog site Lisa. I entered both giveaways! One can never have too many reusable bags.

I never thought about making reusable bags and giving them as gifts. Thanks for the great idea!

Thanks for this post. Reusable bags are one of my favorite ways to go green. I have tons of them. They look better, carry more, are easier to carry, and so much more.

P.S. I have a giveaway for a super cute one on my blog right now.

I LOVE my reusable bags!! I’ve made a couple of my own, have a couple from Target and a couple from IKEA.

Yesterday, I was shopping and realized I had to hit the grocery store, so I grabbed the bags I got from the mall (totally spur of the moment shopping and bags at home!!) and used those instead! I probably got a couple of odd looks using Stride Rite and Williams Sonoma bags for my groceries, but I didn’t use plastic!!!!

I’m going to wrap all my Christmas gifts in homemade bags this year, just to spread the love!
