Envirosax: A Reusable Grocery Bag With Style

Posted on 23. Feb, 2010 by Kate in Food, Mommy Stuff

Protecting the environment has never been so stylish – at least in the grocery store. Check out Envirosax. You may have heard of them before as they have been around awhile, but they are new to me.

I have a number of cloth grocery bags that I try to use and pretty much do 90% of the time. There are those times, though, when I forget my cloth bags and have to rely on the grocery store bags. I could carry the cloth Whole Foods bag I have around with me but it doesn’t fold up and it is kind of a hassle to throw in to my purse or diaper bag. And, I don’t necessarily like promoting Whole Foods when I’m not shopping at Whole Foods…I mean, it’s free advertising for them.

That’s why I like these Envirosax: they fold up small and they are free of logos. I’m not a walking billboard when I carry it. Plus, using a non-plastic bag appeals to my greener side. It’s such a small thing that I can do but if it reduces waste, them I’m all for it. Since I live in a city that banned plastic bags I can’t go off on my high horse about saving the environment from all that plastic, but still, it feels good to do even the smallest of things sometimes.

Oh, and they have a kids line, too. Never too early to start teaching the kiddos about environmental awareness!
