No advertising on a bag...What will they think of next! "Clean up the planet, one bag at a time". This handy little string eco-bag has been used in Europe for decades for shopping trips. Long before we "recycled", the French were re-using these handy string bags for everything. They are all cotton, natural in color and stretch to hold an unbelievable amount, yet fold up into a tiny ball to store in purse or pocket. These have long, over the shoulder handles for ease of use. They are very substantial and last for years, making them the ideal "extra" bag for any kind of shopping excursion. Great for produce. Let's face it, "paper vs plastic" when you go to the store isn't much of a choice. Both impact the environment in a negative way. Having a few of these on hand only helps the planet.
