Reusable bags have helped people eliminate thousands of plastic and paper shopping bags choking our planet. Without a doubt, they are a convenient and eco-friendly alternative to paper and plastic bags - if you can remember to take them with you to the store. Many times, the store-branded, 99-cent bags are either left at home or are too small to hold everything. If you’re planning to do your part to save the environment, here are some sites you can check out for reusable bags:

1. www.joeytotes.com -  Joey Totes were designed to make it simple for people to get in the reusable bag habit.  Each bag stows into a tiny storage pouch that is sewn directly into each Joey Tote, so it’s impossible to misplace. Better still, each pouch can also store at least one other tote (two for the “Big Joey”), so all of the bags are conveniently kept in one place that’s still small enough to easily fit into a purse or coat pocket.

Great for use at the mall, the beach or even the gym, Joey Totes are made from rip-stop nylon, hold up to 40 pounds each and are machine washable.

2. www.reusablebags.com -Envirosax are for the environmentally-conscious consumer who wants a practical, stylish option to plastic and paper bags. Made of durable, waterproof, lightweight polyester, built for toughness and extra strength.

To use, unsnap its closure tab and unroll. The bag expands to hold the equivalent of two grocery plastic bags.
