I have a great selection of Envirosax bags at www.givinggifts.ca – I am based in Vancouver, Canada. I think Envirosax bags are the best – they are the biggest and strongest and come in the nicest patterns – there is something for everyone. I especially love the pouches of 5 bags.

There are a lot of stylish and compact reusable bags out there now.
My favourite ones are:
Chicobag – can be staffed in a small pouch and have a carabiner attached to it
Flip & Tumble – can be staffed into a small ball, the size of an orrange!
Envirosax – huge amount of great patterns and very compact as well
b.b.begonia – Canadian equivalent of Envirosax
Baggu – very stylish and also very compact with their own pouch
RuMe – these bags are not only compact and beautiful but they also have square bottom, so it’s easy to putt groceries in them!

I had given Julia an Envirosax bag, so she’s referring to that one

Julia, Which bags were you skeptical about, Breezy Bags or Envirosax?

I was very skeptical of this bag – but I have tried it out now and I can say it’s one of the best enviro bags out there! It is so comfortable, portable, and useful. You can easily carry a very heavy load with no difficulty. Highly recommend!

I think I might have found some bags that beat all in compactness and heft: Breezy Bags. These tough little guys come five to a set, and all five fit in the space of one envirosax bag. They’re not printed with fancy shmancy designs, but I have a set of five in my purse and can take a full grocery store run without planning ahead to lug a bigger set of bags. And these are easier on the pocketbook too!

I have also just discovered a new bag on the market, just the right size, I keep one in my purse and a couple in my car. Check out the eco-shopper from a Canadian company called Credobags.

Pretty cool and practical stuff… We bought a couple of them in Japan and I think that’s where the original idea came from…

Love your blog by the way..!

Peter, I got mine at the Vancouver Museum, but I have also seen them sold at MEC under the brand name Cactus Creek. (It’s the same company)
