I looked at reusablebags.com and wanted to spend the money on cute bags. But I decided to forgo the fashionista in me (I know…egads!), but Target has bags for $1.50. The ones that fold into quarters and have a snap are probably the same size as those on reusablebags. They do shamelessly promote Target, but at $1.50, they’re a steal.

I have Envirosax and love them, but a few weeks back got a set of super girly pink themed bags that are just like Envirosax, just different designs. I’m absolutely in love with the super cute bird one and the cabana stripes one especially, super durable and hold a ton… plus I wear them over my shoulder and there is no slipping!

Here’s a pic of my new pinky girly bags…they do have them in other colors, too (hubby won’t touch these!)

I have tons of reusable bags…from the t-shirt bags to Trader Joe’s big bag, to Chico bags, and more. And my favorite bags are still the string bags I got from http://www.reusablebags.com . I seriously love them. You can stuff those things sooooo full. I do love to switch it up though and use the other fancy bags. Like Natalie, I also love bags that I can put on my shoulder. Really handy when you need to use your hands to guide little ones on the way to the car

I have five of the Envirosax bags and I LOVE them… only if I load them myself. My sweet bagger at Publix has a hard time loading them because they don’t stay open to put items in quickly. But, boy can you load the items in! They are great because you can put them over your shoulder and carry many. AND, you can roll them up and button them to be very very compact. I keep one in my purse for even small trips to the drugstore or farmer’s market.

Those are really pretty bags. I am a youth entrepreneur and I love fabric bags for non-perishable stuff. But at the grocery store, and for other things that are heat sensitive, I think everyone needs to use a really good insulated shopping bag. So I started selling the best in the world - Kool Bags! They use space age technology and are ultra slim. They save paper and plastic bags from being used, and they help you save gas, too, because the grocery store doesn’t have to be the last place on your errand route.

I get the ones at whole foods that cost me $3 a bag and my really fun colored ones are just $5 a bag. I like the ones with long enough straps to put over your are. Also they squish down into their only tiny bag so they are the size of a small wallet so I can just keep one in my purse all the time. I will let you know the brand when I get home.

They aren’t near as cute, but we’ve had loads of success and comments with Go-Again Bags @ http://go-againbags.com/ They have a stiff piece that goes into the bottom to make them stand up, but the piece can be lifted out of the way to fold the bags up.
