    These reusable shopping totes, mesh produce bags, bulk bags, and the classic string bags are quite nice bags to use. So use these bags & become eco friendly.

    We love so many of these bags! In fact, we carry many of them at BagInspiration, our online shop offering eco friendly bags of all types. There are a few new ones we're going to look into offering thanks to your article! www.baginspiration.com

    A different collection of ecofriendly bags. The green leather comes from a tree: Let´s cork!

    Awesome looking shop. I love the cork hats!

    It is very important to use eco-friendly bags.... i am glad we finally started using them regularly in my home...
  • sema Jun 27, 2010 @ 5:42 am | delete
    Wonderful collection and a great reminder to use reusable bags!
  • Jmel37 Jun 26, 2010 @ 9:26 pm | delete
    I always carry bags with me - a few totes in my trunk so I can never forget! I collect plastic shopping bags from friends and family and use them to make upcycled plarn (plastic yarn) bags that are great as a purse or a shopping tote! You can see examples on my lens: www.squidoo.com/jennybeangoesgreen

    I'm all about going green so I love this lens! I never go grocery shopping without my 5 reusable totes in hand so no more wasting paper or plastic bags. I need to get a couple more fashionable bags so that I can take them to the mall too (my grocery totes would be a bit embarrassing).
  • BigGirlBlue Jun 15, 2010 @ 3:39 pm | delete
    I hear ya! I would never take my grocery bags into the mall. LOL I have a special set of Baggu bags just for there, I always get great compliments on them. And some of the mall stores offer a discount if you bring your bag. BONUS!
  • LumaMark Jun 12, 2010 @ 5:00 pm | delete
    Interesting. My mother and I really need to start using these kinds of bags...
  • Tipi May 24, 2010 @ 5:52 pm | delete
    A very nice collection of great bags. It sure is a good idea to use bags for everything, and save on the environment. I love my canvas bag with a tipi on it and use it all the time.
  • Sylvestermouse Apr 22, 2010 @ 3:14 pm | delete
    These are all wonderful suggestions! I really like the idea of eliminating the plastic grocery bags.
  • JaguarJulie Apr 16, 2010 @ 7:15 am | delete
    SO SO many bags ... what's an eco-friendly bag like me to do about it all? My closet(s) are overflowing with bags of all kinds ... in fact, the eco-friendly ones were part of the huge donation of inventory I made several months ago to my pet charity of FCNMHP. Can we talk? We ladies need bigger closets! ;)
  • BigGirlBlue Apr 16, 2010 @ 1:22 pm | delete
    I hear ya! It's my dream to have a walk in closet the size of a spare room (and a sunroom, media room, outdoor shed.... dreams are endless). LOL

    Very good advice and help for the environment. Top marks

    Thanks for educating the world and contributing to environmental awareness and changing lifestyle. This lens is featured on my Environment lensography - perhaps you want to sport the badge?

    I like all the bags you have highlighted here!! Plus the time has come to seriously conserve!!

    Nice job!
  • kiwisoutback May 11, 2009 @ 7:04 am | delete
    Reusable bags are very important. I see more and more people using them, the word has definitely spread. Nice work!
  • TheGreenerMe May 8, 2009 @ 10:51 am | delete
    These are some great picks, so I'm lensrolling it to my ecogreenbags lens. Excellent picks, I couldn't agree more!
  • AnnieMcMahon Apr 30, 2009 @ 12:45 pm | delete
    Great lens! I keep reusable bags in my car, but I usually forget to use them. I went from always forgetting to sometimes remembering, so I guess I'm making progress!
  • mulberry Apr 28, 2009 @ 5:49 pm | delete
    These are really cute, and offer a great alternative!
  • Mickie_G Mar 18, 2009 @ 4:45 pm | delete
    I just love the license plate bag! Too cute.
  • Pastiche Mar 10, 2009 @ 7:31 am | delete
    I've always made my own totes and shopping bags. This lens is an excellent resource for all the great bags available so that everyone can say "no bag, thanks, I've got my own" at the store. 5*
  • BigGirlBlue Feb 2, 2009 @ 3:44 pm | in reply to cutts | delete
    Thanks! I've added it to the selection.
  • cutts Feb 2, 2009 @ 10:02 am | delete
    We use TuckerBags, great fun designs and extra pockets. Best value for money in a designer groceyr bag we have found. Cute storage pouches mean I never forget this one at the shops.
  • ecogreenbags Jan 2, 2009 @ 2:11 pm | delete
    Great job featuring these different products! I hope you'll join the Reusable bags group on Squidoo!
  • RolandTumble Nov 26, 2008 @ 12:10 pm | delete
    I have several from my own CafePress shops, and I'm working hard on remembering to use them. It was easy when I worked two blocks from the store, not so much, now....
  • jfield Nov 17, 2008 @ 3:24 pm | delete
    I love this! We always take reusable bags with us whenever we go shopping. If we just need a couple of things, we just say "no bag, thanks." The bags you feature are way prettier than the ones we use, though:)
  • emilyava Sep 25, 2008 @ 7:15 am | delete
    Beautiful bags lens.
  • JohannTheDog Sep 13, 2008 @ 5:48 am | delete
    Oh, I soooo want one of those Snap Totes. Thanks for a great lens!!!! Woofs from Green Dog, Johann

    Hi, I love this lens! I'm new here, just made my first lens on eco-chic reusable grocery bags. Maybe you could check them out? We have uber cute bags without logos!
  • jilly Aug 16, 2008 @ 8:55 pm | delete
    This lens is great fun. I will have to order one of those Ecoist bags myself.
  • WritingforYourWealth Jul 26, 2008 @ 3:21 am | delete
    Those are some cute bags, though I don't personally mind providing free advertising for Trader Joe's, PCC, Whole Foods, and the like, since I enjoy shopping at those stores. I probably wouldn't buy a Fred Meyer's reusable bag though (do they even offer them?), heh.
  • sisterra Jul 7, 2008 @ 5:05 pm | delete
    Great lens! I try and make sure I leave the bags in my carm not the house and then remember them at the store.
  • spirituality Jun 12, 2008 @ 3:55 am | delete
    Great lens. I featured it on my new lensography on the environment. Go check it out and add your favorite environment links to the plexo: http://www.squidoo.com/environment-lensography

    There's also a duel about the question: is the environment more important, or the economy?
  • mulberry May 18, 2008 @ 8:57 am | delete
    Even if they weren't a menace to the environment, I despise those little plastic bags...I'm happy to be rid of them. Nice lens!
  • CherylK May 16, 2008 @ 8:45 pm | delete
    Wonderful lens. I added a tip about keeping them in your vehicle. Plus, I have two great bags that fold up and zip and I keep them in my purse, always. Five stars and I'm lensrolling it, too.
