This is a new product for The Stork Wearhouse that I am irrationally excited about! I absolutely love always having a bag with me - I use them at the the grocery store, the library, the drug store, Target - even places that aren't used to reusable bags and look at you funny. We are pretty good at remembering our cloth bags when we make a "big" trip to the grocery store, but now I always have a couple bags with me even for those quick spur of the moment errands. I LOVE them! (Did I say that already?)

Did you know...

• The average American uses between 300 and 700 plastic bags per year.
• Plastic bags don’t biodegrade, they photo-degrade—breaking down into small toxic bits contaminating soil and waterways and entering the food-chain when mistaken for zooplankton or jellyfish.
• If the population of the Des Moines metro area (500,000) all stopped using plastic bags, it would save 70,000 barrels of oil a year!
• According to the American Forest and Paper Association, in 1999 the U.S. alone used 10 billion paper grocery bags, requiring 14 million trees to be cut down.
