The green bag used to be uber functional; (okay) a little dowdy but we all carried one. We were proud to be green, to carry it to the farmer’s market, health food store or on any of our other errands. To say, “No, thanks I’ve got my own bag.”
But today green bags have become quite stylish. If you don’t have a green bag now or you’ve wished your green bags looked cuter – then take a second look at these eco-friendly bags. The green bag has gotten its own makeover and many locations that sell them now offer cute and stylish selections.
Some green bags are so attractive they look like dressy tote bags. For these green bags, you’ll want to be sure to read care instructions for washing as they may need gentle or extra care. Keep in mind your typical green bag is expected to be used for groceries and everyday errands, so you can go ahead and take this to the market and wherever else you like to go.
Don’t think your stylish green bag has to be super expensive. We’ve found quite a few stylish green bags that were less than $3.00 each. Look to “big box” stores that offer green bags as promotional items or some of your favorite stores. Trader Joe’s has fun and stylish green bags and a wide selection of them. While they do have a very visible Trader Joe’s logo on them, their colorful artwork makes them quite appealing and a fun choice for many looking for a great green bag. Best of all, they have several choices on sizes. Which brings us to….
Size! The green bag used to be only one size: a little larger than the typical tote bag. It seems retailers have gotten much wiser about the green bag and now you’ll find green bags in different sizes. So there are larger green bags (ideal for a family’s groceries) and then smaller green bags (for just a few items). It’s now much easier to find that green bag that suits your individual needs and options.
So go ahead and get a green bag – or several! Know you are making a green and eco-friendly choice by choosing the green bag and ladies; you can still stay stylish doing so!
