Envirosax

I'm so guilty of bringing home a zillion plastic bags when I grocery shop.  I even own a Mommy hook, because I don't like making multiple trips from my car to the apartment.  (There are stairs involved.)  At the advice of my friend Caroline, I finally decided to invest in a set of Envirosax.

Each bag holds what two plastic bags could.  You can order a pouch with five bags rolled up into it, making it super portable.  I like that I can do a little something to be more green when I shop; my sister only uses reusable bags and tells me I need to as well!

The website has a bunch of designs, but at the time I wasn't really into any of them.  I wanted a set where I liked each and every bag design, because I'm picky like that.  So I turned to Amazon and found a set I loved, Bloom.

The bags are super lightweight, but they hold a lot!  I like that I can use them for groceries, and keep the pouch in my car for whenever I need them.

As an example, I did my normal grocery load, which the baggers always place in 8-10 plastic bags.  (I would use 4-5 in self checkout.)  Well, that amount fit into TWO of these bags!  I love it.  Makes so much more sense to carry these instead of using plastic.   I'm a convert.
