Reusable shopping bags are in demand
It may be the cute, environmentally sensitive message “I Am Not a Plastic Bag”, that did the trick or maybee it was Hindmarch’s name. Cute, colorful, message bearing and fashion forward.
The bags came out in limited edition. They were sold on a first come, first serve basis with only three bags per customer. When the bags went on sale in Taiwan last June, they created a stampede.
In Western New York, the bags made of differing designs and materials are readily available at Tops and Wegmans as well as smaller outlets for 99 cents and up.
The single use, biodegradable-resistant plastic bags are getting a really bad name even though their use is at an all-time high. In the United States, people use 1 million of them every minute. The Washington, D.C., Worldwatch Institute has reported that Americans annually discard 100 billion plastic bags.
Measures to ban them are being considered all over the country. San Francisco already bans their use in large supermarkets and other stores. Want to know more about our range of reusable bags, please visit http://flickr.com/photos/suncorp
