| Called the "It bag of the future" by Teen Vogue, this stylish and ridiculously practical bag (sold in packages of 3 and 6) is one easy step in helping save the planet. Baggu ("bag" in Japanese) is machine washable, and folds up into it's own pouch small enough to tuck into your handbag or pocket. Made of super-tough ripstop nylon in bright, fun colors, it's the re-usable bag that's eco-chic. | | Why Baggus are so great? You want to replace your old friends--the paper & plastic bags--with something that does their job without creating needless waste or harming the environment. Using one Baggu for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags. -
One Baggu holds the contents of 2 to 3 plastic grocery bags; Six bags can hold a whole cart full of groceries. -
Baggu Bag handles are the perfect length: you can hold them in your hand, on your forearm, or over your shoulder. -
They are made from strong rip-stop nylon weighing only 2 oz. and can carry up to 25 lbs. They fold into a flat 5 by 5 inch pouch that easily slips in a purse or pocket; that way they are always handy when you need them. -
Baggu bags have a nice big gusset in the bottom so they will sit flat when they are filled (good for eggs & milk). |  | Smart Design
Baggu was designed by mother-daughter team Joan and Emily in California. They both saw the need for a better reusable bag, and after dozens of prototypes, came up with a solution that makes using reusable bags stylish, practical and easy. | | Baggu is great whether you shop on foot or drive to the store, you always need to have a bag or two that fold up small and can be carried in your purse, ready for an unexpected errand. |  |  | Made of lightweight, hard working fabrics that will perform for years of service in all of your daily toting tasks: groceries, pharmacy purchases, gifts, and books, and pet food, and clothes and anything else you can think of--all the things you find yourself accepting a disposable bag to bring home. Changing your own shopping habits is one small thing you can do to make a difference--feel good every time you use your BAGGU! | | 
| Plastic Bags & the Planet
The average family brings home 1,000 bags every year. Most of those bags end up in land fills. That really adds up - 100 billion plastic bags are sent to landfill in the US each year. In landfills, it can take up to 1000 years for a bag to decompose. Plastics don't biodegrade, they photo-degrade, breaking down into tiny toxic pieces that contaminate soil and water or harm wildlife. Every time you use your Baggu bag instead of plastic or paper you are doing something good.

 Now I can always have a shopping tote on hand August 16, 2010
Cricket (Seattle, Wa)
I have been eying the BAGGU Reusable Shopping Totes for some time now. I had also looked at the Envirosax, ChicoBag and Waste-Less brands, but when the BAGGU's were available on a Lightning Deal recently I made the leap.
Pros:
* Lots of colors to choose from - I chose Fuchsia
* Size - They hold a lot and they fold up into a small pouch. I carry two in my purse, so that I always have a bag available to me now.
* Sturdiness - I've loaded these up at the grocery store with heavy and sometimes sharp edged products and so far no tearing or damage to the bags.
Cons:
* Price - This is the only thing I don't like about these bags. At just over $6 per bag it seems a bit high, but if they last and keep me from bringing home so many plastic bags I guess it's worth it.
 BAGGU rocks! August 4, 2010

If you are looking for reusable bags, look NO FURTHER, these are by far superior to any cloth or mesh or any other kind of reusable bag I have used before.
First they are so comfortable and easy to use. They are strong, they expand, and the handles are great. Second they compress easily and further than any kind of canvas bag can. They each come in their own container which I don't always use, but I can stuff them in a glove compartment or wherever very easily.
Get the 6 pack. My wife and I each have 3 in each car, holds us for almost any but the biggest shopping trips. They are so compact we use them a lot more than previous bags. Highly recommended, great product.
Well made & long lasting lovely sacks to share August 3, 2010

When the pack of 6 arrives, you know the right decision was made to purchase the BAGGU Reusable Shopping Tote 6 Pack. They take up such little space, are so fluid, colors are quite vibrant and these are WASHABLE! The trunk of my car was filled with reusable shopping bags of assorted sizes and shapes, but none can compare to the BAGGU bags in durability and ease of use. I carry one in my purse and I'm always prepared for groceries, goodies, produce from my garden, even litter if I have the urge to start clearing the sidewalk. Because it's made of lightweight nylon, it dries very quickly so if it's used on vacation or at the beach, it can be washed, hung up and it's ready to go the next morning. The construction is excellent! I thought I'd read somewhere that these are lined, but they are not. Nevertheless, the seams are finished well and the design allows for easy filling, carrying and refolding for storage in the little bag which houses each BAGGU sack. Unless I'm filling the BAGGU with really dirty or gross things (not my usual bounty), I put the little bag inside the tote and when I unload, the bag is always right there. I've been storing my coupons in the bag which make it very convenient when I'm at the store -- immediately let's me know what I wanted to remember to buy. These make great gifts, too!
Pretty, durable, convenient July 22, 2010

I love, love, love my baggus! I haven't had the issues with the little "envelopes" because I found a little clear vinyl tote (used to hold cosmetics) that perfectly fits six of the bags neatly folded. Now I use the "envelopes" to help organize my desk - they hold paper clips, post-its, tape flags etc so for me it was like a two-for-one. The bags themselves are incredibly strong, and can be slung over a shoulder (unlike most reusable bags) which helps in carrying heavy loads to the car or down the block - and they hold a ton. My only problem is that I have to keep insisting to grocery store clerks - "You can put more in it than that!" They also wash up like a dream.
They're so wonderful that I bought the "Big Baggu" and keep it in my handbag at all times. It can hold more than two shopping bags worth of stuff at the mall - incredible. It's fun to see the sales clerks gape as I help them stuff item after item into it. And the color choices are awesome.
So versatile July 11, 2010

We use the bags for shopping, storing and my favorite....knitting projects.
I absolute love them! The various colors they come in help you to identify what is in them right away.
At the store they hold a lot and since the bags are well made you can trust them.
