Remember that old topic that had several links to reusable tote bags to go grocery shopping? Well, if you do please point me in the right direction. They had all kinds of cute vegan sayings. Thanks! :)
Type this into the search bar: 1bagatatime
There are 4 threads that come up, maybe one of them is what you were looking for.
Here's 1 Bag at a Time... Reusable Grocery Bags. I thought bookmama posted in the thread I'm thinking of, but maybe I was thinking about her water bottle post.
I wasn't crazy. Here's the post with bookmama:
Cloth Produce Bags
Here are the other two:
Ecobags = Yeah!
Grocery bags!
www.reusablebags.com is my contribution to the list! :)
I have the ACME Bags - EarthTote Reusable Shopping Bag and the Heavy Duty Classic Hemp Shopping Bags from www.reusablebags.com. They are super strong and great as they are the same size as regular paper grocery bags so they don't get over-packed and too heavy to carry. And the ACME bag is good for refrigerated or frozen foods. I bought mine a few years ago and they are holding up great.
I love my Chico bags. They stuff into their own small carrying sack with a draw string and a carabiner to clip to each other or onto a jacket zipper or cart. I have a couple of them with me at all times.
Muah! Thanks guys! I knew I had to of been just skimming over it!! :D
I was going to order from www.1bagatatime.com, but I've wound up getting all of my bags from Trader Joe's instead. So far, I think I have 3 of their canvas bags ($2.99 each), 4 of their red floral bags ($0.99 each), and 2 of their black and red zippered cooler bags (now reduced to $2.99 each from the original $4.99 price--yea!).
Many of the "healthier" grocery stores have their own bags you can pick up.
maybe it is just my area, but i find that ALL stores have them now!
If you want my instructions for making sturdy tote bags out of old jeans, pm me. (Or post here and I will pm you.) If I can do it so can you--I'm not that domesticated. ;)
