For the Love of Bags

I am guilty of taking plastic bags everytime I grocery shop. Most of the time, it is because I don’t remember to bring my reusable bags with me. They are too big to fit into a handbag and I do my shopping after work.

However, I need fret no longer with my recent purchase of Envirosax reusable grocery bags.

These bags are so light and best of all, roll up into a very compact roll that fits right in your handbag, so you can’t even tell its there! Its also quite large and can fit quite a lot. It also fits up to 20kg so that’s 2 bags of rice! The other nice thing is that they come in loads of colourful designs to suit everyone’s taste.

Now, I have no more reason to forget my reusable grocery bags! Envirosax can be purchased for RM26 from Tiny Tapir.

This is the bag in question. I wrote about the Greenwich Leather Bag from Banana Republic a while ago. At the time, it was new and going at full price of about RM890 or something similar. The Banana Republic store in The Gardens only had it in Black when I decided to get it with an American Express 15% discount.

This very same bag is now going for a hefty 40% off at Banana Republic! I am so tempted to get it but it’ll be nuts to seeing as to how I already got myself a couple of new bags recently. But still… 40%!!! It brings this wonderful leather bag into an affordable price range. The leather is beautifully soft and supple and its roomy but not large.

Temptation… will someone please go and get it so I don’t see it again at BR?
