Green Options

Planet Butterfly has a great reusable shopping bags called Polar Bear Bags because of the beautiful polar bear artwork on the bag. These bags remind us to do our part to help save the planet and stop global warming-therefore protecting the polar bears.

These reasonably priced bags may make the perfect stocking stuffer for someone who needs a little nudge to help them go green.

Or the bag itself may make the perfect gift bag. Fill it full of gifted goodies, make the bag part of the gift and you have the gift that keeps going since it can be reused over and over again.

Baggu was founded by a mother and daughter team from California. Using lightweight, durable fabric, these little guys fold up easily to keep in your car, glove compartment, even your purse. And in case you thought reusable bags were only good for grocery shopping and carrying your shoes to work in the winter, the creative Baggu ladies give you the best holiday idea ever:
