Description:
Hi everyone! The first round of this swap just ended, and i had fun looking for different bags to send out... and hope you did too :) anyway, thought i'd bring a second round of this swap out... i know, i know, very close to the timing of the first swap, but i figured we'd try to squeeze this in before the holiday rush starts... Do you like to collect the reusable grocery/shopping bags you often see at stores now that promote the use of recyclable bags instead of plastic bags? Some of these bags are made of nylon, cotton, or even recycled plastic/plastic bottles, and usually have the store's logo on them or even fancy patterns :) and are inexpensive - usually starting at .99 and then some... so why not share some from your favorite stores or stores your partner may not have in their region (i.e. ralph's doesn't exist in my area, and publix i haven't seen outside of the southeast) or some bags you think are very unique! For this swap, you will send 2 partners 2 different NEW/unused bags each. Try to make it interesting :) mix it up, don't send 2 of the same bags to the same person... 4.5 rating and above, newbies with a FILLED profile are welcome, but please, no recent no sends... we don't likes to be flaked ;) Thanks for looking and happy swapping!

I love the sound of this. I'm from the UK, and i'm hoping for bags from exciting american stores i've never heard of. :)

My only request is no Walmart, please! (We have Trader Joe's, Walgreens, Target, Ralph's, Vons around here, but if some of these are the only ones you can get in your area, that's fine)

Now that I completed the last bag swap and received positive feedback, I feel like I can send out a couple more. I am really not big on chain stores. I would be super excited to get a cloth bag from your local CO-OP and Farmer's Market. If that doesn't work so many places sell reusable bags. I would prefer something local to your area rather than a chain store. Some hints...local conservation organizations, nature centers, book stores, libraries, health food stores, music festivals, arts organizations or galleries, maybe even a local restaurant. If all else fails I would be ok with Trader Joes or Whole Foods Market.
