Skip the Paper & Plastic Bags! Go Green with Stylish Repax Shopping Bags {Review & Giveaway}
Tuesday, March 02, 2010 Posted by Jolly Mom
If you are trying to go green this year, one of the easiest places to start is by eliminating plastic and paper grocery bags and replacing them with reusable grocery totes. 100 billion plastic shopping bags are used annually in the United States alone! Imagine if we could eliminate or greatly reduce that number?
By using reusable shopping bags, you are not only reducing waste and keeping plastic from entering the landfills, but they look cute too! I was recently given the opportunity to try out Repax reusable shopping bags and I highly recommend that you give them a try too.
Here's why I love them:
The featured product{s} in this post were provided to me free of charge by the manufacturer or pr company representing the company. All opinions expressed in this review are my own and not influenced in any way by anyone. Please refer to this site's Terms of Use for more information.
- They are sold in sets of 4 large, durable bags so moms shopping for the whole family have all the bags they need for an average trip to the grocery store.
- All 4 bags fit into a small 5” pouch so they can easily fit in purses, glove compartments, etc...so they're always on hand when needed.
- The bags are machine washable so spills and bacteria are never a problem.
- Each bag can safely hold up to 20 pounds and a ton of groceries. These bags are probably the largest that I have tried to date.
- Cute, modern design and they come in five great colors!
- They can be used for more than just going to the grocery store. Take them to the beach, gym, pool--anywhere.
- Affordable! Only $19.99 for the set of four bags and pouch.
This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winner: ohstac
