Okay, I love the fact that retailers across the country are carrying reusable shopping bags and becoming somewhat eco friendly. All I am asking is why in the world are the bags so small?
I tried one out at my local grocer and I couldn’t fit a box of cheerios in the bag. How does a mom, who wants to preserve mother earth, go grocery shopping with a dinky little bag? Answer: She doesn’t. She ends up getting “paper” if there’s no rain and “plastic” when all else fails.
Retailers please get a clue and invest in larger bags.
Take a look at IKEA’s Bug Blue Bag or Costco’s reusable bag. They’re huge. You can actually fit stuff in them, which makes them useful. This site even sells stylish eco bags that can have a design of your own. They look big, but we all know pictures can be deceiving. If you have a durable reusable bag let someone know and encourage others to invest in one.
Peace.
