Reusable Grocery Bag Swap: Canuck Friendly

The only bags that I have are Sobeys bags, which is what I'll also be sending - I would love to receive ANY new bag :)

I have a really cool, new, bright green reusable grocery bag from a local store. It is a type of cloth-like material. Very sturdy and roomy. It has the earth and some sayings about reuse and recycle on it. I am looking for floral or bright vibrant colors or pastels. I'd also love a bag from Starbucks, Archivers, or a scrapbook or craft store. I just love these bags and swapping them!

I usually prefer the plastic reuseable over the cloth. I love the kiwi on the Sobeys bag. I hoping for a Canuck! I will be happy with any nice bag. My local Wegman's has similiar fruit and veggie bags-tomato, peas & grapes. I can't wait!

@pickleme - Sobeys actual has a really colourful series of bags, (artichoke, grapes, blueberry, kiwi, clementine ...) I'd be glad to do a private swap with you (or anyone) after this one if you don't end up with that kiwi one that you like :)

I prefer plastic reusable bags but will be happy with what I get.

@wunderland I would be glad to do a private swap with you. I am interested in getting some fruit or veggies on a bag. Can you tell me what others you have or is it too many to say. 8 )

@pickleme I have a couple of grocery stores (Nugget & Trader Joe's) that have plastic reusable bag. I too would be willing to do a private swap with you.
p.s. If you ladies set up the swap, I will be there. 8 )

I'll be happy with any bag I get :) If your grocery store is a local or statewide chain (for example HEB in Texas), that would be really cool but any bag you can send is fine.

Oh and I will be sending a bag from HEB in Texas. I don't think they have any of the plastic though. I don't think any of our grocery stores have the plastic kind.

@valleychic - it doesn't matter if the bag isn't plastic, nylon and canvas store-brand bags are nice to 'cause they clean up well in the washing machine :)

I have in my area, kroger, aldies, wal-mart and meijer, i personally use kohl's they are bigger and can hold lots of boxed items when i grocery shop. I would love to get soem of the ones people are describing from Sobeys but would be happy with any.

I picked a bag up yesterday for my future partner...it's one of my favorite styles as it can be folded up and snapped closed. Extremely sturdy, too. However, I'm totally open to any other style that someone picks, as long as it's reusable, that's all I matters. :-)

Happy New Year!

What is a plastic reusable bag? I do not think I have seen those. I will wait to see who I get in the swap then get you a bag. I like to pick stores that are not in your location. I have bags from all over. I love these swaps.

@dstny2001 - a plastic reusable bag is just a nice sturdy large bag with good handles usually made from post-consumer plastic materials, they're not much different than a fabric reusable bag - they get the job done just as nicely. I'm pretty sure most reusable grocery bags are plastic; at least the ones I've seen.

I am going to keep a closer eye out. I probably even have some and did not realize it. Thank you @wunderland

What do you consider a 'newbie'? I have participated in five swaps with all good ratings. I would like to participate in this one too.

@lajamison - For me, it depends on the swap. For this one, it's likely that I would ban anyone without a few Type-3 swaps completed and well rated. I will consider you for this swap since the sign up date is still 2 weeks away and you have 1 completed Type-3. So feel free to sign up - any banning that I feel necessary won't be done until I assign partners.

Is this swap for the $1.00 reusable grocery bags at stores? Just want to make sure.

Yes it is @priscillabrunson - typically they prices on these bags start around $.99, but I actually saw some the other day at the grocery store that were insulated and cost around $4. They were nice, but $4 is a bit much - I might buy one for ice cream and such when the weather warms up.

I would love any bag other than Metro, Safeway or Superstore from Canada -- I have about 5 of each :)

I have a PERFECT bag. A store only in Dutchess and Ulster counties in NY. I am a newbie knocking at the door and trying to get in! I am going to sign up, please don't bump me!

I have the PERFECT bag - just got back from Louisiana - from the Winn Dixie !!

I have plenty of Walmart bags...I don't need any of those...or County market ones. I would love something weird or unusual. I don't get offended, so the funkier the better! ;)
