i love my envirosax

Tuesday, May 15, 2007

Josh and I got groceries last night and tried out my new Envirosax. I bought them from delight.com. I love them! I wasn't sure how much they'd hold or what the checkout person would say so I was a little anxious to use them. I got up to the checkout and the Walmart cashier got ready to put our first items in those yucky plastic bags. I stopped her and said that I had actually brought my own bags and was going to use them first. She looked slightly confused and then said, "Oh....oh!" I whipped out my first bag. The cashier would scan the items and just put them on top of the spinning thing that holds the bags. I just kept fitting more stuff into it each one. I'm guessing those five bags held about 16 to 18 plastic bags worth of food. It was crazy! After I paid I told the lady thanks and sorry if I slowed her down. She laughed and said that I was actually pretty good at packing.

I'm pretty excited about using these bags from now on. They roll up to a tiny size so I could even carry one in my purse. It really was so handy to use them...even carrying in our groceries was easier because we had less bags. I love when something that's good to do is actually less work!
