Reusable bags??

Reusable bags? What's wrong with plastic bags and the monsters they create when they accumulate?? Bag Monsters aren't so bad, you know... I'm a family monster with millions of little Bag Monster spawn to worry about. Some of them live under kitchen sinks, but most of them live in the bay and ocean. Go to my blog, BagMonster.com to learn more about how we're being oppressed world wide. All these bag bans are supposedly because we make an expensive mess, cause "environmental damage," and because a few of us were eaten by marine animals... Don't they know better than to eat Bag Monsters?

A stylish, compact, and durable reusable bag that will actually be used!

The Acme Workhorse 1500 is the solution for those who are resistant--or just forgetful--when it comes to regularly using bulky canvas bags. First, the Acme 1500 is extremely durable. It's made of high quality rip-stop nylon and holds 25 pounds of stuff. Its handles have double the fabric for comfort in carrying. Even better, it's so incredibly compact (1.5 ounces in a 2x3 pouch) that it can be easily stuffed into a purse, backpack, or even back pocket (!) for those unexpected errands. This is great for my husband who doesn't have room in his overstuffed backpack for an enormous canvas sack just in case he goes shopping. I got both the Acme and a Chico Bag in order to compare them, and, as soon as I opened them, I decided to keep both of the Acme 1500s and give the Chicos as gifts. While the Acme Workhorse does lack some of the pizzazz of the Chico, the Acme is a clear winner due to the quality and durability. Thanks to Acme, I am hoping to reduce my plastic bag use to zero!
