See All The Clever, Fun, Reusable Bag Styles Availabe on Zazzle

BYOB has a new meaning here in New Zealand as nearly all major retailers have started charging for plastic bags. Many consumers now Bring Your Own Bag when they go shopping. I am only guessing that this trend is worldwide. Whilst this BYOB saves a few dollars off a large shopping bill, more importantly, it works towards protecting our environment.

They have lots of names: reusable grocery bag, reusable shopping bags, bags for life, tote bags, canvas bags, and even more choices of sizes and colors. No longer is it necessary to bring a boring bag as reusable shopping bags come in all sizes, shapes, colors and designs. To some people, they have become a bit of a fashion statement, like their handbag. To others, they are a platform expressing their political, social or other ideals.

Here I offer you a variety of comedy and beauty as samples of each of the seven different styles of bags available from Zazzle.

Why Shop with Zazzle 

Before I could recommend Zazzle, I designed a few items and then purchased them for myself. I was quite impressed with the print and overall quality. Hope you enjoy yours too! But if not, here is the Zazzle promise.

Some Thoughts on Why to Use Reusable Bags 

Paper vs. Plastic Debate Heats Up!

Hey everyone, I'm Elizabeth Chambers and you're watching LivingGreenChannel.Com, your online guide to a greener and more healthy life. 5 California cities, including Malibu, Manhattan beach, and San Francisco, have adopted some sort of ban on plastic bags and just in time! As anyone who has googled plastic bags and ocean has discovered that plastic accounts for 60%-80% of the floating debris in the water. In some places accounts for over 95% of debris creating a swirling continent size waste between San Francisco and Hawaii that is seriously endangering marine life. Animals either get entangled in the plastic and suffocate, or swallow the plastic which fills their stomachs and they starve to death. A GreenPeace report states that over 267 species of animals have been affected by plastic debris floating in the ocean. It would cost billions to clean up this garbage patch which makes it unlikely that any single country will step up and take responsibility for the mess which puts the responsibility on all of us land dwellers. So what can we do? Stop using plastic bags and use reusable bags when grocery shopping or at the drug store. Be especially careful about waste and securing your trash bins if you live near the ocean, as plastic can easily blow into the Ocean and since it does not easily degrade it will float around in the water for decades to come. This has Elizabeth Chambers for LivingGreenChannel.com with your simple and free tip on living a greener life. Distributed by Tubemogul.

...it's better for the environment, I have less trash to throw away (and don't need to pay for a bigger can), I can keep my refrigerated items cooler in the cooler bag, esp. on a hot day!
