Green Like A Rainbow ~ And A Giveaway!!

Going green can be a bit frustrating at times, especially when you are also trying to save money. One way to save a lot of money while grocery shopping, is to buy in bulk. Beans, rice, pasta, chocolate chips, you name, it can find it in bulk!

The one thing that I don't have is a reusable bag that works well for these bulk foods. The ideal bag would be lightweight, with a tight weave to keep the finer products like flour IN the bag, instead of spilling through it! I think I have found that bag.

Kootsac bags are made from ripstop nylon, and are the perfect solution to your bulk bag woes. They are water resistant, lightweight, strong, and they come in a rainbow of colors! They also come in three different sizes, so you are sure to find one that suits your needs.

For those that like to stick with more natural fibers, the same bags are available in natural silk.

WIN IT!!
Kootsac is offering a set of three blue Kootsac bulk bags to one lucky reader! The set is the one pictured in this post, and includes a small, medium, and large bag. In order to enter once, leave a comment on this post.

Emily B said...

Okay, that is SO weird. I was just saying to the DH that our local bulk store was pretty good at cutting down on packaging, but you still take home the bulk food in plastic bags. This is the product I didn't even know I was wishing for! Amazing.

Fantastic idea since my grocery store still only has those plastic bags out to put things in as you shop.

My favorite color is red - although I have to say I really like several of the colors which is a nice surprise. I wasn't expecting such rich colors on the bags.

Ingrid said...

Thanks to my oldest sister's advice to me, I have been buying in bulk for several years. The savings is amazing and not only you save, your purchases last longer. The money save buying bulk, leaves you money to buy something else you need. This giveawy sounds like something we all need. Thanks.

Ingrid said...

I like the blue. Thanks.
