Wrap-N-Mat
These are so cool. You use them instead of ziplock bags. I did use at least 3 ziplock bags every day (I like to bring a variety of veggies and fruit to work to snack on). You just put whatever you want in the middle and wrap them up. So cool and you get a mini placement. They are easily wiped clean. No more plastic bag guilt for me. These are the coolest (and you are helping the environment)! A win/win situation.

This particular design has a silicone lid that securely attaches to the cup. The outside is matte and the inside is glazed. I prefer a version that Starbucks put out a few months ago. Their version is pretty much the same, but the outside is glazed (and of course has their logo) and the lid is plastic with a silicone liner to keep liquids sealed in. The key difference between the two is the price. "I Am Not A Paper Cup" is roughly $20 and the Starbucks version is $12. The upsides to either is that if you are a daily coffee drinker, you don't have to trash a paper cup and plastic lid every time you get take-out coffee. The downside is that both of them hold about 8 oz. - not favorable if you normally order a "grande" at Starbucks. Another issue for commuters is that it is not spill-proof or splash-proof. And finally, the Starbucks version CANNOT go into the microwave.

The testers got 1-3 weeks out of each one. Kitchen, car, camping! The only con is that there is a big Made in China stamp on the front; however, if we consider where bamboo flourishes, perhaps they can produce sustainable products.

Here's the deal, you stick these magnets in your washer and use no soap, which elimiates the rinse cycle also. How? Well, it makes sense. I remember from my chemistry class that soap does not clean, it's the water. Soap just makes, well, it just kind of makes water wetter, which then enables it to get to the dirt better. Soap doesn't clean, water does. So, if these magnets can chemically do to water what soap does, then there is NO reason it wouldn't work. The website is very straight-foward with a video that shows how it works. There is also a 90-day money-back guarantee, which I would assume people wouldn't even need. This would cut our cost of detergent and water, while eliminating un-necessary packaging, natural resouces in the production, and chemicals in our water.

These batteries are the newest of rechargable batteries. As a hybrid, they have the power for high-drain products (cameras) and for low-drain devices (remotes, flashlights) - and have a comparable shelf-life of a traditional alkaline. The HUGE benefit, is that when not in use, they can retain their charge for a ridiculous amount of time. One reviewer said he experienced a 26% energy loss in 6 months! Are you kidding me? I'm used to rechargable batteries lasting about 26 hours! Definately worth investing in; however, this would also require a quality charger, which goes for about $40 on amazon.

Maybe this won't be as exciting to others, but for me, this is a real find! I've tried buying loose tea, but the dunker-things always leave a few leaves in my drink. This may be the answer to that terrible dilema.

I've been using reusuable bags to shop for the past year + and it feels great. Did you know the average American consumes 750 plastic bags a year? eek!
