More efforts to reduce waste

At the beginning of the year I challenged myself to cut the amount of waste my family makes in half. We have been doing an ok job but I am still on the lookout for great products! One of our biggest problems is bags-plastic grocery bags & snack bags.  I have found a great snack bag company that makes their products from recycled material. Bebeloosh Mini has a "store that is all about reduce, reuse, recycle.
By reusing our snack and lunch bags over and over again, we reduce the use of plastic bags. The fabric is a blend of recycled hemp and organic cotton. The shipping envelopes are made from recycled paper.
I am adding new designs constantly. Custom orders are welcome".  I personally have the cat bag shown below for my daughter and it has gone on many adventures with us while keeping the snack in the bag (I hate having a purse full of crumbs because the snack bag pops open!)
Want to Win? Bebeloosh Mini is offering one reader a set of three snack bags (winner chooses design) open to US residents-contest ends 3/6/11. Leave one comment per entry with an email in the entry (if your email is not in the entry I do not have a way to contact you if you win!)

1. Visit Bebeloosh Mini and tell me your favorite item
