According to a recent Gallup Poll, 70% of us have used a reusable bag at least once in the last year. Reusable bags are no longer a trend, they are everywhere. I finally figured out a system for remembering to take them with me. I leave the larger grocery style bags on the passenger seat in my car. I also carry smaller bags in my purse so they are always with me.
When SnapSac TM offered to send me a few of their bags to check out, I was excited to see what they were all about. The timing was right. My reusable bag supply had dwindled down to nothing and I was in the market for a few more to add to my front seat. The bags came folded up in neat little rectangles with a snap holding them together. They have stylish patterns and are reasonably priced (from $1.99-$9.99).
Lisa Foster, founder of SnapSac TM says “We give consumers more in a bag. It’s fashion, quality and responsibility-all for about the price of a latte.” Lisa is the founder of 1 Bag at a Time, the parent company of SnapSac TM , one of the first reusable bag companies sin the US.
SnapSac TM comes in 6 different styles, each with two color options. The patterns and colors are interesting without being too splashy.
The bags themselves are sturdy, made from a thick fabric. The Grocery Tote was a decent size. It felt a bit taller and narrower than the average reusable bag, but I was able to pack it full of groceries. I will probably use the Super Tote for groceries too. It is quite large and could hold a lot of items. The SnapSac Mega Totewill be my go-to beach bag this summer. It will be joined at the beach by the Cool Tote and the Lunch Tote which are both insulated cooler bags.
Each bag has a small pocket inside that snaps closed. I don’t think I would use it for anything valuable since it could easily fall out on either side of the snap.
Overall the bags are durable, stylish and get a groovy green thumbs up.

Wow – those are so super cute! I LOVE that being green doesn’t have to mean burlap sacks and ugly water bottles anymore 🙂
Great idea to have a set of coordinated different-sized bags!

I love the fact that – well, that they snap!
One of my New Years resolutions was to start using (and reusing ) reusable grocery bags. It would be awesome to win this set. They are so cute!
Trying to get in the reusable bag groove but finding room in the car where the kids won’t trample them or forget them is a whole issue.
Hi Heather, I keep mine in the front seat right next to me. That way I don’t forget them!
