Have you become more aware of the impact of your choices on our environment and our future? Are you always striving to be a bit more responsible with your choices to try to limit that impact? I have made a few changes, and one of the ones that I have been fairly consistent about doing is bringing my own bags to the grocery store.
I was so pleased to receive the peach bag from minusbags. This bag is a sturdy 100% cotton twill. The unstructured design helps it hold larger or bulkier items (unlike the squarish brown paper bag reproductions that I’ve purchased from my grocery store). Another plus from the minusbag is that they are sturdier and prettier, carrying fruit and vegetable designs instead of a store logo. One day I was almost accosted by a store clerk, becaus
e in addition to the two bags from her store, I was using one bag from a different store. That won’t happen with minusbags.
I also enjoy using my bag for trips to the library. They carry my heavy books much better than a cheap plastic bag. And, as the minusbags site informs: plastic bags are bad news:
According to the EPA, more than 380 billion plastic bags are used in the U.S. annually — and an estimated 100 billion are thrown away each year. Most clog landfills, but many end up snagged on trees and fences as an ugly reminder of our disposable society. And most plastic grocery bags are not biodegradable. They actually break down into smaller and smaller toxic particles that pollute our oceans, rivers, lakes and soil. Every year, thousands of animals, particularly marine mammals, choke to death after mistaking discar
ded plastic bags for food.
Try less plastic and more pretty with minusbags. One reader will win three minusbags. If you’d like to win, please leave a comment on this post, and check out the New Habits in the New Year guidelines at this main post.

These bags will be great. Unfortunately all three that I have are already in use. Would love some more. Just started my blog and your button is my first.
Thanks.
I would love to win these! Happy New Year!
What a wonderful way to start shopping ‘green’ for the New Year!
O count me in!!! I’ve resolved to help my family live a greener lifestyle. This would be a great example for my kids!!! These bags are ADORABLE!
Thanks so much!
~Lana B.~
Fabulous idea–and fabulous designs too!
That is such a great idea! I always have TONS of grocery bags piling up that I have to bring back to the store for recycling. These bags are super cute and eco-friendly, and I’d LOVE to have some! I’ve never seen anyone at the grocery store with a bag like this. Maybe I’ll start a *green* trend in good ol’ Jersey.
would love to win these!
I could totally use these!
Oh these are nice! Count me in please! Thanks!
Please enter me.
I am in!
love these!! Now I’ll just have to remember to bring them in from the car when I go shopping!!
I’d love to have these. Count me in!
I have tons of reusable bags. Being from the library community we were forever receiving them for one thing or another. I also have one from our local library, several from my favorite grocery store and even some from our warehouse store. Great idea. I place them by the door to remind me to leave them in the car after emptying.
Awesome! I’m all for saving the environment and while I do reuse some of my plastic bags, the number I get – and sometimes the double bagging – drives me crazy! Thankfully we do have recycling here, but still!
These look really cute! I love a cute reusable shopping bag!
I could really use these bags!!
Put my name in the hat!
Kat
Oh those are pretty! I’ve been developing the bring-my-own-bag habit as well, but always underestimate how many bags I will need. The more, the merrier–for I shall fill them all!
This would be a great bag for when the kids go to Grandmas. Thank you!
count me in please
Please enter me in too!
Oooh, I NEED some shopping bags! Count me in! I love the designs on these…
what a great give away….perfect for that grocery shopping….I am getting so tired of plastic!!
Count me in!!!
Sounds like a good give away – would be perfect for my costco trips – no more cardboard boxes either!!!
oh how i loath the question… “paper or plastic?”
I would love to have these!! Count me in!
Lovin It!
Very cool, and much better looking than the ones I already have. Now, if they would just remind me to get them out of the trunk when I get to the store, they’d be perfect. Thanks for offering them!
I would so love these bags!
These bags would be wonderful to have.
Would love to win.
Great! Count me in!
These bags look great! All my reusable bags are from grocery stores, with their logos, and I’d love to have some attractive ones.
I have been using reusable shopping bags for years, even before it was trendy to do so, but after more than 10 years, they are looking shabby, to say the least. I would love to win some nice-looking ones that aren’t a collection of mis-matched bags from trade shows.
You can never have too many bags or shoes for that matter!
lovely just beautiful
I could add this to my growing collection!
Bringing my own shopping bags when I shop is my New Year’s resolution. Finally, a resolution I can actually keep while helping the environent at the same time.
love these. i keep them in my car for everything. could use a few more
Enter me please!
count me in! thanx
these bags are so nice! Please count me in.
add my entry please
I love reusable bags and these are great looking. Thanks!
I’m using 3 of the squarish ones with the store logo on them. One more would make it very unusual for me to use any more plastic ones than we use for our household food trash.
Also… Have a stockpile of the store plastic ones? I have a friend who makes them into re-usable ones. I even saw them turned into a rug at a local recycling center.
Oh, wow! I love using reusable bags and these ones seem so cute!!!
These look awesome! I’ve been using the store brand bags as well, but would love something a bit more flexible.
Looks like a very useful prize! Thanks for the chance to win!
I want to win!
I’d love these- most of mine say Kroger and I feel funny taking them anywhere else!
Wow!!
pick me
i wanna win
Count me in please!
We go thru lots of plastic bags. But, now, seeing these lovely and large reusables, I would like to try to “go green”. Thanks!
Three of these minusbags would be great for me.
I’m in.
This is so me! Keeping my fingers crossed!
I would love these…we are a earthy family and these would be great. We get lots of funny looks when we ask for paper instead of plastic and these would be a million times better!
I’d love a chance to win these.
I would love to have this, how convenient
I have been eyeing these bags lately. I could definitely use one! Count me in!
I’m currently in the process of living simpler and going greener. It’s been little changes that have added up to bigger ones. Please enter me in – I’d love them!
This is great for the environment – no waste of paper or plastic bags for grocery shopping – thank you
I’m tryng to go “greener” to set a good example for my children and to make the world a better place for us all. These bags would be a big help. I have some I use, but mine are really worn out, and these would look and feel much better!
These look great! My son was born on Earth Day and is big into recycling and such. He would be happy that we have these and I would love to not have so many plastic bags around.
What a great way to help the environment!
oh, yes please!!
These look so great. So much better than the dinky little ones that the grocery stores are selling. You could probably get your shopping into one or two of these bags.
I would love to win this!
Oh, those look nice! Enter me, please.
My son would be so proud of me if I used this bag. He is all green.
I keep seeing these bags all over the internet. I’m starting to think I need to get one! They look ideal for me, since I’m a college student and I always have books to carry.
The minusbag does look prettier than the bags with store logos.
This fits perfectly with some habits I began last year…I’ll have to check out their site because I’ve already considered buying some reusable bags…pretty ones would make it even better
.
How cute are those? I love using reusable bags!!
I am so in! I resolve this year to go more ‘green’ and eat better so the minusbag is a perfect combo!
As someone who already brings a bag, an extra one- or two would be nice!!!
Ohh these are nice I have mostly switched to paper but this would be even nicer.
This would be great!
these are really nice
I definitely need this and to stop using plastic.
Love the look because I also Vegan now. Fruits and Veggies for New Year. Thanks and Happy 2008!!
Would loooooove this one!
Enter Me Please !!

Great green!
I love the one with the grapes!
I love reusable bags! I have a few, but none seem to be sturdy enough for real grocery shopping. I would love to have some that are big enough and sturdy enough to handle the bigger, heavier items.
Great idea! I would need a bunch for our grocery shopping trips, but you must first start with one:)
Cute! Thanks for the giveaway!
I would really like any of these. I am trying to live a greener life.
I would love to use these for my grocery trips. :0)

These are cool.
These would be GREAT! Thanks for the awesome chance to win a few!
I’d love to go green in my shopping expeditions..

I love the brown bags with the peas on them!
My wife and I have been working on going green in our house. It would be great to win the minusbags for our grocery shopping.
These are very spiffy looking!!
wow! I would totally use this…
These bags are very cool and great for carrying groceries!
What a fabulous idea! We have the squarish ones too from our grocery store. But I must admit I forget to bring them far too often. I am trying though. Someday perhaps my “mommy brain” will return to my pre-kids intelligence and ability to remember!
I want these.
We are avid recyclers in my house-even my 4 year old knows which blue bag is for cans/plastic and which one is for paper! She yells at people when they come over and try to throw a water bottle or soda can in the trash, lol.
These look great as well as being functional!
Thanks for the contest and hints
My wife would like these
We have SO many plastic bags when we come back from the store. It would be nice to cut down on them. Thanks!
sounds great enter me in your contest
Enter me please.
What cute bags!
Me please! Those are so cute.
you can never have enough totes to carry your stuff, cause everybody got different stuff and you need to keep the stuff separated, in some sort of filing system so you know which stuff is which
I really love the chocolate bag w/ the pears!! Sign me up.. I’d look pretty rockin at the grocery store with these
I blogged you too
http://prizeatron.com

Would love to win this. Our whole family is trying to go green as much as possible. This would be really great. Thanks for the giveaway.
I like the brown with green peas bag. Fun!
I love them all and would put them to good use.
I am hoping to get these bags….
Having more than one bag would really help since I tend to leave the one I have in my car – and could use an extra for when I’m walking to the library, etc.
We use do this when we were younger until the plastic bag phase came in. It would definitely be a great idea to go back to the older days when mom and I would go to the market with our own bags
Great give-away. Please add my name to the list. Thank you, Cory
Thanks for the giveaway!
I will use these.
I’m all for it!
I haven’t really gone “green” or anything, but the grocery store with the best prices does not supply bags, so I am working on getting some good quality bags for my shopping. With 7 kids, you can imagine the amount of bags I need each trip!
These bags are so cute! It’s so important to do our part for the environment. Count me in!
fabulous!
Thank you!
I love that there are 22″ handles to wear on the shoulder too!
Count me in! Being so frugal lately, I can’t get ahead enough to have the extra money to buy bags like this so I can STOP USING grocery bags!
I would love to have a bag & do my part for ecology.
I want to win too
This sounds great anything to make this world a better place.

I’m ready to make a diference!
I would love this!
Would love to win,
I love the peas bag!
would love to try out one of these minusbags!! Thanks for the opportunity to win one!!
These are great! I’d love them. Semi-random side note: did you hear that “Biggest Loser” is going green too? They cut out plastic water bottles completely, instead using Brita filters and Nalgene water bottles. Great idea and a good example!
This is totally up my alley. Something I’m trying to do in 2008 is use all re-usable bags when doing my errands and shopping…and to tell that friendly clerk that no, I don’t need my item in on of your little plastic bags! Wonderful giveaway!
I’d love one.
Great idea! Love these bags!
Amy
I would love this! We already use some reusable bags, but this one seems like I would get more use out of it – I’m thinking the mall!
What a great giveaway.
These would really help me in my quest to go greener.
Ooooo…so cute! I’d love these!

My sister has been urging me to try these bags for a while. My New Year’s Resolution is to look for more ways to conserve and I suppose this will be my first!
Thanks for a great article on the eco dangers of plastic grocery bags.
I’ve been looking for something like this. Going “green” is so important for our universe.
Going Green is one of my goals this year, this would be a perfect thing to start with!
Great way to make my new years resolution to be more GREEN!

Cute bags! I’d love to get a little greener this year!

I currently have enough plastic shopping bags in my house to make a carpet that would cover my city. Or at least it seems that way! I would like to start using less plastic, and these bags would be great!
Very cute grocery bags!
I have several canvas shopping bags I use for each shopping trip….but they are nearly as attractive as these classy minusbags!
great way to start the new year off eco-friendly

Please put my name in the hat for this lovely bag.
great bags!
I got some Envirosax for Christmas, but I still need more than five for a grocery haul and these are awesome looking.
I have beeen using my own bags for years and it is great to see them becoming more accepted and recognized. Many times I almost couldn’t get baggers to understand what they were and what they were for.
My first contest entry for the New Year – yay!! Didn’t win nary a contest here last year. Hope this one is a bit different. Here’s to hoping
Yes, please!
What a wonderful idea! I’ve been looking for canvas totes of my own to keep in the car, because I often go to the grocery on small trips. Even when I tell them to put the items in one bag, I often see them bagging as little as ONE ITEM per plastic bag!! Having a tote would fix this, hopefully!
I am trying to go green is a lot of ways. Would love to win these bags to help in my effort.
great bags and excellent idea. I’ve been using beachbags to carry groceries in. The waterproof ones are great for keeping the cold foods cold on the way home.
I love the black one with purple circles on it (hint, hint).
Please enter my name – would love to win!

Great idea! I’d love to win these
I generally don’t make New Years resolutions, however, a few years ago I made one to recycle more. I am happy to say that I have increased my recycling more and more each year. This past year, I began recycling plastic bags and have bought a few cloth bags in an effort to stop using the plastic bags altogether. I only have 3 so far and adding these would enable me to do my grocery shopping without the use of any plastic bags.
Perfect for shopping!
These bags are so cute
Can never have too many reusable bags
good idea
Very good for the environment.
nice, thanks.
Save the earth , Save us from being homeless.

One of my New Year’s Resolutions is to recycle more. This bag will help me a lot.
I, too, have a store bag that I carry when I go to the grocery to carry my cold stuff in.
I love a good, economical way to use bags!
Great idea! I’m so tired of the piling plastic bags from the grocery store!
You can never have enough bags
I wish that more people would use these. I have one already, but could really use another one. Thanks!
Global warming should be the main issue that all the Presidential hopefuls are talking about. I can’t believe that no-one in the government is taking a serious stance on this issue. We NEED to take action NOW-for our children. These bags are one way of doing our part. Spread the word-Global warming is the one issue that affects all of us, regardless of race, sex, nationality or religion.
They are very cute. Pick Me!!!!
I love the dots and these would be great for my grocery shopping.
Love them! I have some Envirosax, but I like these ones too!

2 young boys means lots of groceries!
Enter me please!
I would love to start taking my own bags more.
I went to a store the other day and the cashier was triple bagging my groceries! I asked her if anyone ever uses their own canvis bags. She looked at me as if I was crazy. She said “NO. you would be considered strange and frisked for stealing!” –
Her comment would not intimidate me, I would use them and pretend to enjoy the frisking!So, Enter me please!
What a great looking bag!
these would be great to take to the grocery across the street!
These would be great, much roomier than the two I have!! Thanks!
These would help with my new years resolution!
I would love to try these. I try to get paper bags at the store, but sometimes they are out.

I’ve been wanting to invest in a reusable grocery bag. I could have built the empire state building with all of the plastic bags I’ve collected over the years.
please count me in
I shop at a store that does not provide bags. These look nicer than anything I have now. Thanks.
These are adorable.
Years ago I used cloth bags and they were awesome. I’d love to use these new bags!
Go Green! What a great bag…would love to own it
I love bags…don’t tell my husband that I want another one! LOL!!
I’m having trouble adjusting to cloth bags. Maybe these would help me get on the right track.
I can always use another cloth grocery bag.
I keep seeing these and keep meaning to buy them…such a good idea!
They look great and so useful.
count me in
We really need some of these!
I’d love to enter to win!

These bags look great and I would love them. Our daughter has been using similar such bags from grocery stores and highly recommends them.
Very cool! Way to promote going green!
Love these bags!
I’d like this
Those look really nice! Please add me too!!
Would like to win for my treasures.
Oh, how I’d love these!!
I have a couple bags like these from my local grocery store, but I could definitely use one more.
Those are great bags! Eco-friendly, and stylish!
So cute. I could definitely use these.
Sounds great. Count me in.
These are great. One of my New Years resolutions is to Go Green!
I love these bags!
These are such cute bags and for a wonderful cause.
This would be great. One of my things I want to do this year is start using my own bags and teach my daughter to use her own bags. Since these bags are so stylish and pretty it won’t be a tough sell to get my daughter to use them as well and that will hopefully start a trend for her for the rest of her life. A personal change is one thing but I am hoping to influence a new generation as well.
I always need more bags to tote things around in!
Definitely need this
MINUS ME!
Very cool!
I could use some strong bags about now
I would love to win these bags and get rid of some of those plastic things that never hold up anyway.
Bag it!

I love that bag! One of my resolutions this year is to be more GREEN and organic in my lifestyle. This would help – pick me, pick me !!!
that would work great at Trader Joe’s
These would help with some of my shopping!!

glad to see some replacements for the tossaway type bags
Love love love it… count me in!!
Neat bags!
please enter me thanks
Great idea.
I love tote bags!
These bags are so cute and would be so nice to take to stores that require you to bag your own items and not have to worry with the plastic bag ripping and your items falling out onto the ground
What a wonderful prize-we could all use these
I’d love to win those bags. They’re really cute!
I’ve started using resuable bags, get some dirty looks in the stores (as if they are more work than the flimsy plastic ones!), but LOVE THEM! Thanks for a great giveaway!
Love to own these.
Wonderful giveaway, I’d love to win. Europeans have been doing this for ages, glad we’re catching up.
Awesome prize! Count me in.
I’ve finally seen the light as to what we all can be doing to help the environment! These bags would be a great help to me in doing my part!
I’d love to take these cool bags to Aldi with me!!
we must all do are part
These are so cute! One winner with three bags is great–enough for a trip to the grocery store. We take our own bags to the store like a lot of people. I amassed a large mishmash of large store sacks and canvas bags left over from my teaching days. The grocery store workers couldn’t seem to figure out how to bag them–they would either be incredibly heavy or light. That’s ok, but the heavy ones were a little difficult to carry. We graduated to the store brand and things are a little better. We love them, but I’d would adore CUTE bags!
sign me in!
THese are awesome!
This is such a great idea to use these instead of plastic! Great contest too
Count me in please.
Oh, wonderful! I would love to win this. I have several reusable bags but they’re never enough for my large weekly marketing trips!

Great bag!
One of my New Years resolutions is to Go Green! I have several reusable bags, but they’re never the right sizes (usually too small) or I don’t have enough for my large weekly marketing trips! I go to several stores and buy what is on sale. It is easy if you plan ahead, and where I live I can make a small circle and not waste a lot of gas. Thanks for the great contest!
Perfect for grocery shopping!

When I lived in Europe years ago, I’d have to pay for the plastic bags if I didn’t bring my own. It wasn’t much, but it was a good idea.
Please enter me!
I like the idea of cloth bags. They are better for the environment and reusable. There are many uses for them. I use them to hold my crochet projects when I go anywhere.
These bags are so compact and earthly.I love them
and can never have enough bags for grocery.Please
enter me to win
Oh, this bag is very actual! It is necessary to buy much products! Plastic packages are frequently torn! The bag from cotton can sustain the big loadings only!
Please enter me to win it!
Great concept and cute too! Would love one! Thanks
Not only are Minusbags a great “green” product that reduces waste, but they solve other problems such as plastic bags breaking and scattering your groceries on the ground, or accidentally leaving a bag of groceries at the register because you confused it with the next person’s groceries.
I would never get my groceries mixed up with the next customer’s if I had these unique Minusbags.
And no breakage either. Plastic bags are just flimsy and don’t even do a good job of protecting your groceries.
Maybe we will see “minus bag lasies soon!
nice bags
Cute Bags! Great for grocery shopping!
