Dying to get your hands on the latest It bag? Stand in line for two hours? Let's not forget the point of the bag - made of canvas, the totebag can be re-used to carry home groceries.

What IS all the fuss over Anya Hindmarch's "I'm Not a Plastic Bag" when there are plenty of totebags out there that can be re-used for groceries, like the "Paper NOR Plastic Bag." It looks and folds like a paper bag, but has the reusability of plastic bags. Made of polyester and vinyl, it's sturdy, and doesn't create the hassle of storing a bunch of bags under your sink (or wherever you stuff all those plastic bags in your house).

Plus, you don't have to stand in line for two hours.

looks like a paper bag, re-uses like plastic. folds like a paper bag, and -- best of all -- right now it's on sale.

good handles. something to put your trader joe bag in, asitwere. (via papernorplastic.com)

A simple 'N' changes everything. Paper NOR Plastic, thank you very much.

Could have done without the URL on the bottom though.

This is a great play on the paper grocery bag, which I can still get at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods but still feel a little guilty for needing.

Good Idea. We manufacture reusable bags at www.reusablewholesale.com
All bags are biodegradable.

Ok, I think I am beginning to go cuckoo for coco puffs in regards to reusable bags. I have started a collection - which is not quite ecological. This one is cute too...

adorable

Leave this one in the car and you'll never be without a shopping bag. Plus, some stores actually give you a discount for bringing your own shopping bag so it will eventually pay for itself! How's that for good shopping?
