Shopping Bag - Paper, Plastic or BAGGU?
There IS an alternative to the shopping bag question, and it’s called BAGGU.
When it comes to the shopping bag, we all know the checkout counter mantra… “Paper or plastic?”
Well, considering that the average family brings home about a thousand bags every year, and that most of these bags end up in landfills, you can see how important it is to find an alternative. After all, it really adds up - 100 billion plastic bags are sent to landfills each year in the U.S. alone.
Once there, it can take up to a 1000 years for a bag to decompose. Petroleum derived plastics don’t biodegrade. They are broken down into tiny pieces by the sun’s UV rays. These tiny pieces contaminate the soil and our waterways, harming us and the wildlife.
Enter, the BAGGU bag.
BAGGU was designed by a Mother/Daughter team. After dozens of prototypes, they came up with a solution that makes using reusable bags stylish, practical and easy.
The BAGGU works equally well in the city and in the suburbs - or anywhere in between. If you are a city dweller, you can have a BAGGU in your back pocket, or in your purse, ready for those unexpected errands. And if you’re living in the suburbs, where people tend to load up their station wagons or SUVs, you can have several BAGGU bags in your glove compartment, or under the car seat.
BAGGUs are made of lightweight, hard working fabrics that create bags that will perform years of service no matter what you need to haul: groceries, books, gifts, pet food, clothes, you name it… One BAGGU holds the contents of 2 to 3 plastic grocery bags. (Six bags can hold a whole cart-full of groceries.)
The BAGGU bag’s handles are the perfect length - you can hold them in your hand, or around your forearm, or over your shoulder.
They are made of super strong, rip-stop nylon, so they are light and compact. They can handle up to 25 lbs of load, and after use they fold into a flat 5 inch square pouch that easily slips in a purse or pocket. That way they are always handy when you need them. Also, BAGGU bags have a nice big gusset in the bottom so they will sit flat when they are filled (good for eggs & milk.)
You see, hauling groceries never looked so stylish. It’s so… well… Sex and the City.
And if you are a guy, then you will appreciate the fact that BAGGU bags come in macho colors, and perform like MACK trucks. 
Available in Fuchsia, Navy, Khaki, Black, Grey and Aqua.
