when we visit new and interesting places, i try to bring home a 'grocery tote' from our travels. the bags range from 99 cents to 2 dollars. not only do they continue to remind me of our wonderful trip, they continue to help me avoid those nasty plastic grocery bags. we have bags from canada, brazil, and sundance utah, to name a few... the sundance bag has a neat subtext on the bag:
Use this bag twice a week for 2 years and each bag will SAVE
* 11 pounds of garbage
* 832 plastic bags
* enough petroleum to drive a car 60 miles
