"Green" is the new PINK

GO GREEN

Not too long ago whenever you walked into a grocery store you noticed the supermarkets NEW effort to get the buyer to use reusable bags.

Most people say "no thank you" either because the grocery store charged 5 cents for each bag or doubted they would ever use them again. On top of  that the bags were usually a single color with the name of the store, not durable ,and has "0" style.

Some stores like IKEA have been doing this for years. They'll just charge you for both (.5 cents for plastic or .59 cents for BIG BLUE) but at least the big blue comes in handy (laundry, moving, etc) and reusable. 

*99% of the time a percentage of the sale of these bags go back to help the cause.

I found some bags that I think are fashionable and at the same time show that you are doing your part for the Environment.
