When I shop, I use re-usable shopping bags. My boyfriend calls them my “hippie bags.” Whatever, you want to call them, they make sense for a number of reasons. Some of the bags are plain, utilitarian, which is fine, but if you are going to use them again and again then why not get something cute and fun? 
Here are a few bags that I found at Nimli. Right now, at Nimli, you can get 20% off your order of $100 by using the savings code WA1.

This carry-all reminds me of spring! And considering how much snow is outside, this is a very good thing!

This fair trade bag by En Gry & Sif features unique and intriguing designs, making each one unique. I love the pom poms that line the zipper. At 14 inches wide and 9.5 inches high, it will hold everything you need!
You can get yours for $122.00 from Hip and Zen. Warning: they use leather in some of the supporting features, so if you’re looking for something vegan-friendly, this ain’t it!
