One more greenie....

I completely forgot to mention in the previous blog about my KICK ASS re-useable shopping bags!  I purchased 10 of these suckers about three months ago.  I keep them in my car and pull them out when headed to the grocery store.  They are AWESOME!  I feel a giant sense of smug satisfaction sauntering out of the store with all my groceries nicely packed in these bags while the many other fools, ahem....I mean shoppers.... wheel away loaded down with nasty plastic bags.  

Furthermore, I have to haul my groceries up a flight of stairs and guess what????  I make TWO trips opposed to the 4-5 trips I would have had to make with plastic bags.  Why, you ask?  Well, you can load two times the stuff in each bag, and they have long handles so you can wing them over your shoulder like a purse.  Sweet!

You can buy them for about $1 each at every supermarket these days.  Here's another incentive.....I have heard rumblings, from the cashiers, that eventually shoppers will be charged 5 cents per plastic bag.  

If you can do only ONE environmentally responsible thing.....get these bags!!!
