even if you're an inveterate envirosax-er, these are great. slightly boxier, with longer handles, a stiffer (not as silky) material -- but strong & good for carrying those giant cartons of OJ & apple juice as well as all your groceries.

i suggest having these AND some envirosax, they're larger when rolled up but eminently useful.

Looking for the latest in Eco-Friendly bags? Try out these RuMe Reusable Totes. Not only are they totally adorable, safe for the environment and made in South Korea under strict fair trade conditions, they are bigger than the Envirosax Bags and are much more darling in my opinion.

The design mimics an old-fashioned paper bag w/ squared sides and a bottom to easily fit anything. Plus, the handles are made to fit REAL people...with plenty of room to slide over bulky jackets or sweaters. Each bag folds flat to fit in a back pocket; one velcro strap can secure 1 bag or all three together. Patterns on all sides. RuMe's come in sets of 3. (via Delight store)

Fantastic bags

I really like these bags because unlike other shapeless totes, these have actual squared bottoms and sides and comfortable handles. I'm trying to make the change to a "greener" life and these pretty totes are my next step!

These make a great beach bag! I like the patterned set. Super durable & made with fair trade labor. Useful for other purposes as well...groceries, diaper bag, shopping tote, beach bag and the list goes on.

Want to do something good for the environment and look great while you're at it? Introducing the RuMe Bag (3 for $29), a brilliant new carry-all designed for use again and again. RuMe bags hold up to 50 pounds, yet they roll up to just 6"x2"x3" and velcro closed to fit anywhere. "RuMes" come in a variety of summery prints and streamlined solids, ensuring you always look great at the grocery store, the park, the gym...wherever! (via Outblush)

I hate staid reusable canvas bags, can't handle the small poly bags that only fit a box of cereal, but my head might explode the next time my co-op cashier gives me a snide look and asks if I want plastic or paper. What's a girl to do? I think these will work well.
