A twice-weekly sharing of eco-shwag.

Today’s freebie’s a set of 3 “Safari” S.H.O.P. totes from Calypso Studios. These foldable, portable totes come as a triumverate in their own wristlet carrying case; they’re the type of collapsible totes I recommend every woman keep in her purse to unfurl at a moment’s notice, so she’ll never forget your reusable bag again.
Each tote’s 19″ x 17″ — but folds up to a 2″ x 3″ size. Comment by Tuesday to get into the drawing, which’ll happen Wednesday (more info on freebies here). US addresses only.

These bags are great! I keep them in my glovebox in my car so that I have them anytime I stop might need to stop at the store.

i was just thinking of getting me some collapsible totes for my purse and now you’re telling me they come in zebra print? WANT. :)

these are awesome! i hate being at the grocery store and forgetting all my reusable bags at home!

These would certainly be attention getters. I’m using organic cotton string bags when I shop & I get a lot of comments from the check out clerk and baggers. I’m in Florida so I hope that doesn’t disqualify me!

Those are so cute! I have my regular reusable grocery bags, but they say “Whole Foods” all over them, and I don’t really want to take them to say…the mall! But, these I would keep with me always for random purchases.

Those are cute. I’ve been thinking that I need to make some cute tote bags for when I don’t want to carry trader joes bags. But that’s two sewing projects down the list and I haven’t had time to work on any sewing for well over a month.

I love my tote I always keep in my purse and set of five that was a gift from the company I work for … however, my mother was admiring mine and I think it would be great if I could win these for her. (She lives in Ohio, which would be a great place for her to be so hip and cutting edge when it comes to reusable bags.)

Happy Friday, Siel! These Safari Bags are fabulous! I could give my sister one for Mother’s Day, one to my best friend and keep one for myself!
They would work fabulously for our town’s outdoor
Goshen Market that has just begun every Saturday until late Fall! Please enter my name in your drawing. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I love good looking reusable bags. Many thanks for the opportunity to win these sexy bags. Cindi

I could use a fold up to keep in my purse for unexpected purchases. And the leopard print bag will go nicely with my favorite vintage leopard print faux fur coat!

These are super cute! And I always find myself somehow without my reusable bags all the time, so they would definitely be helpful :o)
Comment by Katie — April 24, 2009 @ 9:49 pm
I would def get a lot of use out of these bags. Thanks!

The biggest struggle for me in quitting grocery bags is the totes I have are too small or not packable. Collapsible in a cute carrying case sounds good to me.
Comment by Ele Munjeli — April 25, 2009 @ 9:23 am
These would be great for clothes shopping or unexpected purchases, thanks!
Comment by Valerie — April 26, 2009 @ 2:14 pm
These look just like the Envirosax I have and use all the time – believe it or not I could still use more, and I’d love to be able to share!

Adorable! Love that we’re getting reusable totes that aren’t all about logo creep for some brand or store. Dig it!

I use the reusable bags all the time now. The ones I bought at Stater Bros, are going on 6 months already. I’ll even walk back to my car in case I forget them before I go shopping. I LOVE not having to haul plastic bags back to the store to recycle.
Comment by Stephen (LA) — April 28, 2009 @ 10:59 pm
These bags are way too cute and you can’t have enough reusable bags.
