Giveaway #12: Bagnesia Reusable Bag Reminder Kit


One of my reader friends, Allie, sent over an email with info on the Bagnesia set. I was interested so I contacted them to see if they'd send me a kit to check out. Not only did they send me one but they offered me one to give to a lucky reader, too.

Let me tell you that I need all the help I can get when it comes to remembering to bring my reusable bags with me shopping. I usually remember right about the time I'm grabbing the plastic shopping bags they hand my stuff over to me in.

What's special about this kit? Well, it comes with a few reminder items, such as a velcro piece that goes around your steering wheel, a door hanger to remind you when you leave your house, a super compact reusable, water-resistant shopping bag and a pouch to fit your bag, keys etc in.

When this arrived at my house, I thought maybe I didn't get a kit as it was such a small package. But nope, it was all in there! I love how small the reusable bag is! It rolls up and has a band to keep it shut plus a keyring to hang onto something. It's so small that I plan on just keeping it in my purse at all times. You never know when you might need one! They also sell some reusable produce bags that I might consider picking up in the future. I never thought about using any of those! I'm planning on working on becoming a little bit more "green" this next year.

So one lucky winner will win the Bagnesia Reusable Bag Reminder Kit that you see pictured above. (Minus the groceries, of course!) :) So if you need a little help with your own Bagnesia, this might be one you'll want to enter!
