A twice-weekly sharing of eco-shwag.

Today’s freebie is a bring your own kit, complete with a reusable bag, water bottle, and mug press! All are items that I collected from gift bags given out at various green events:
>> The bag’s a Whole Foods tote, designed by Sheryl Crow and made of 80% recycled plastic bottles.
>> The bottle’s an Office Depot reusable aluminum bottle. Yes, the inner lining’s BPA-free according to Yalmaz-Siddiqui, Office Depot’s Environmental Strategy Advisor.
>> The mug press from the now defunct Ideal Bite is great for fair trade organic coffee drinkers on the go. Made mostly of stainless steel, the mug press comes with a travel lid and a storage compartment at the bottom that holds enough coffee grounds for two more cups of brew.
Comment by Tuesday to get into the drawing, which’ll happen Wednesday (more info on freebies here). US addresses only.



ideal bite is no longer? just shows you how much attention i’ve been paying to my email inbox :(
btw, i’m willing to share the freebies with someone else — i already have the shopping bag and a handful of sigg-like bottles. i just want the travel coffee press!

Would like to win! I’m a heavy believer in recycling and “going green.”

I need a new bottle and who couldn’t use a travel press, would be great for my upcoming vacation. Great give away.
Comment by mudnessa — February 3, 2010 @ 10:41 am
these are cool! since I’ve been using the same mug press for four years now (and how many mugs o joe?!) this would be nice to use for a change of pace. :)
Comment by jeannie — February 3, 2010 @ 12:42 pm
I’m totally in need of a travel mug! And my grocery bags are always over-full, so I could probably use another of those too. I don’t need a water bottle though…so I would pass that on to someone who does!
Thanks for the chance!

Coffee and Green … what’s not to love! Count me in!
Comment by Dale — February 3, 2010 @ 1:56 pm
What a wonderful trio of prizes! Any of the 3 would be fine for me. The mug press is one that my husband would enjoy receiving for Valentine’s Day!
Thanks, Cindi

I am sure I won’t have as many comments as you do, but Travelin’ Local is giving away a massage this month.
I’d love to have this gift set. :)

I love the bag and the coffee press mug!
Comment by Robert Stockham — February 4, 2010 @ 7:44 am
I agree with the first commentor, Joni, I don’t need the water bottle or the bag, and thus would be happy to share. The mug, however, I would love to own! I am a big loose leaf tea drinker and when I do the “on the go” thing I usually am restricted to my smaller selection of tea in the bags.
Comment by Katrina — February 4, 2010 @ 8:10 am
Wow, I could actually use everything that you have listed and would really appreciate them all. Thanks for all of your great giveaway opportunities!
