Bagnesia Review and Giveaway


I hear many people say they don’t use their reusable bags because they forgot them. I usually keep several in my car so I always have one on hand. But there are days when I don’t have them and forget. Pam and Caprice came up with a great idea to help everyone remember their bags. People want to be ecologically and socially responsible. Using even one less plastic bag CAN make a difference in the future of our world. Caprice was visiting Pam and they were teasing each other about their reusable bag amnesia. Each of them wanted to use their reusable bags but could never remember to do so. So they came up with Bagnesia.

Bagnesia is Eco-Friendly Shopping Kits and Accessories to help you remember your reusable bags every time you shop! Bagnesia is committed to helping people live more lightly on the earth, by simply remembering to use their reusable bags. Plastic bag waste is greatly impacting our environment see their website for important information regarding this matter. We need to reinforce the cycle of taking our reusable bags from the house, to the car, into the store and back again. Bagnesia’s solution to that problem is a kit designed to remind everyone of that eco-friendly cycle.
Some of their kits come with a door hanger and a steering wheel cover that say “Grab your bags”. The steering wheel cover is about 4-5 inches long, it won;t cover the whole thing, just enough to remind you. They also have a key chain reminder. Below are pictures of their produce bags. I love these! We go to the local fruit stand and always come home with the little plastic baggies. My husband says, “I always take the cloth bag”, but he still uses the little plastic ones. Not anymore!

The bags are really lightweight too! I carry a small purse and it folds up and fits nicely in my purse. I love these things!

Bagnesia has kindly offered one Mommy Has to Work reader a Solution Kit ( like the one seen above). To enter visit www.bagnesia.com and tell me something you learned from their site.
