It's taken a while, but environmental awareness has become seriously stylish ... without costing a lot of money. Forget the oh-so-environmentally unfriendly plastic grocery bags. Ditto for the oh-so-ugly yet environmentally friendly canvas grocery bags. 'Tis the season to give Envirosax.
From Oprah to Newsweek to Weeds, everyone seems to be giving these reusable, nylon shopping bags shout-outs these days, and it's easy to see why: They're hip, they're stylish, and they're eco-friendly. Not to mention, they're compact and yet they can hold two plastic grocery bags worth of goods, up to 44 pounds.

My mom mentioned that she wanted some stylish grocery bags, and the Envirosax Flora Pouch is just what she'll be getting this Hannukah. (Don't worry, it wasn't supposed to be a surprise.) This set of five Envirosax holds the ten grocery bags' worth of food, and all five bags can be rolled up to fit into a pouch that she can easily take with her to the store.
Normally, such a set runs about $37.95, but after doing some price
comparisons online yesterday, I found that
Nubius Organics is offering a
15 percent discount right now if you
enter the coupon
codeDISC15
at checkout. They're also offering free
shipping on orders over $50 (code:
FS50).
I think these bags would be a great stocking stuffer or gift for a friend or colleague. (I even think this is true for those who aren't into the environment. These bags are so stylish and durable that I am thinking about getting one to carry my computer and other stuff in, and I think you could pass Envirosax off as "just a cool bag" to almost anyone.) You don't have to buy a pouch either. You can also buy individual bags, such as the pretty Envirosax Flora1 Shopper shown above. The individual bags run at $7.95 minus 15 percent at Nubius Organics, though they can be found for as high as $10 elsewhere.
Envirosax are also a great gift option because they feature several different designs, sure to please everyone on your gift list. For those who think black is the new black, there's the Envirosax Monocromachtic Pouch. For those who long for the 70s, there's the Envirosax Retro Graphic Pouch, and for those who prefer some funky, colorful graphics, there's the Envirosax Mikado Pouch. There's even a Envirosax Retro Kitchen Pouch for people who miss the days of Donna Reed.
And for children, there are the Envirosax Kids Dinosaur Shoppers. What's not to love?
