I saw these bags in In-Style magazine and had to have them. There are 5 fun designs for each bag. The set comes with a case to carry the bags in. These bags are easy to roll up versus the bags that you have to stuff into litle pouches. When the bags are expanded, they are about a foot deep and wide.

I always keep these in my purse when I shop. I recommend buying a set like this than bags individually because you'll end up wanting more!

I love the envirosax. They can be folded up and carried in your purse or pocket. In addition they come in a carrying sac in which they all fit and are very portable. They are very light weight, strong, wash easily, and don't wrinkle. They have a nice fabric handle which allows you to carry them over your shoulder, too. Besides the grocery store, I use them at the department stores when I purchase shoes, clothes, etc. I don't need any more plastic bags in my house! I think they're great. I Give them as gifts. That's how I got my first set. Now I give them to daughters, etc.

I received one of these bags for a gift a few years ago & loved it. So when I needed more bags to do shopping, I gladly bought more. They work great and you can put lots in. I usually use them to carry lots of library books and have held up great!

I love these bags! I saw the positive reviews but honestly was slightly put off by the price, so I was pleased when I got them as a Christmas gift last year. Turns out they are totally worth the money. First off, you do get five bags, so honestly when you do the math it's not that bad.

Pros:
1. They are fully machine washable and the material they are made from has just enough slipperiness to it that simple spills/leaks can often just be rinsed off. (Something to think about when choosing bags to reuse, you don't want cross contamination between shopping trips.)
2. They hold way more than you would think. Because they fold up so small you'd think they had a relatively low carrying capacity, but I've been shocked at what I've been able to fit in them. Taking all five to the grocery store is often all I need for my trip and one or two is more than enough for trips to most other stores.
3. Because they come in a set I'm less likely to be without one. I personally don't use their little collection pouch all that much, but instead tend to stash them in various places...one in the car, one in my bag, one at work etc. My biggest issue with reusable bags is that I tend to forget them on my way out the door and having five bags that can be so compact really helps with that.
4. The patterns are really cute and I love the variety. I've gotten compliments on them before and have had several people ask where I got them.
5. They are versatile. I literally use them for everything; one holds my towel and sunblock when going to the pool, I carry supplies for school (I'm a teacher) in them and recently even took one on a trip to use as a beach bag.

Cons:
There aren't really a lot of these. The only ones I could think of are:
1. While I love the fabric it's not unbleached, eco-friendly hemp or cotton...not sure about the environmental impact of it's creation. Could be totally ecofriendly, I have no idea honestly, but these aren't your typical cream colored shopping bags. You can decide if that matters to you or not, it really doesn't to me since I plan on having them forever.
2. They include a snap for rolling them up and into their small little bundles. When the bag is open that means you have this little fabric strap and snap hanging off the bottom. This really doesn't bother me at all, but it may be a "look" that could put some people off from a visual perspective.
3. They aren't cheap. Again, I'll restate that when you consider there are 5 of them it's not that bad really. But they aren't the cheapest bags on the market.

Considering how much I love them, I'm planning on copying my aunt and giving some out this year as gifts myself!

I received these as a gift and I love them!! And trust me, I am normally not going to say I love a grocery bag. These fold easily, look amazing, and are even silky to the touch. I imagine they are easy to wash, too. These look so beautiful that I even used one to tote some pool gear. Can't say that about the 99 cent reusable bags you buy at the store!

Buy these - you will get years of use out of them and they will add that wee special touch to the mundane task of grocery shopping.

I love these bags... I keep them in my car so I always have a bag when I go shopping. They're strong, sturdy, and large enough to fit a whole lot of groceries; and the shoulder strap is a great length. Definitely a great buy!

From what I gather, all the Envirosax bags are very practical. They are small, easy to store in a purse, easy to find if you pick the right colors, and carry alot of items at once. One downside is that you do have to fold the bags a little bit. Its not fast and easy, but I suppose that its a decently good solution. If elastic was used, then the elastic would probably stretch over time. Also, these bags can be washed. Remember, you need to wash these from time to time. Too much dangerous bacteria hitch a ride on these bags into your home! Its been researched.... wash your reusable bags regularly!

Envirosax are the absolute best reusable bags! They're highly functional and attractive. I love that they roll up so small and you can toss them in your purse or pocket. I never forget to bring my bags into the store anymore. I have two sets and use them everywhere: grocery store, library, daily use, etc. They're great!

all 5 of them fit right back in my purse once the grocerys have been unloaded. This means I always have the bags when I get inside the grocery store or other store. No more having to run back out to the car for forgotten bags or even worse no more forgetting the bags at home. Great bags, durable, comfortable to carry, compact when folded. Worth the money.

These aren't too big or too small and the colors and patterns are great. Envirosax makes a great product - and I really wanted totes that I could use even at work occasionally without them looking completely silly (like their adorable Sesame Street line) - so these were exactly what I was looking for.
