I'm Not A Kalachuchi

Yes, I joined the bandwagon of people who now started to use reusable shopping bags instead of the usual plastic bags that we get from supermarkets. Anya Hindmarch started it all. She has been a designer for 12 years now and recently, her design showing the "I'm not a Plastic Bag" logo infront of the bag itself is more of an environmental statement. It's a cotton bag and at the back it shows "We are what we do". It was such a hit that i'ts now SOLD-OUT worldwide! It's for £5. The most expensive one I saw from eBay is now at $189.97 and still going up. But of course, there are now imitations sprouting from greenhills to online shops, where you can buy the same replica of the bag for a far lesser price. I was even planning to buy one from an online shop since i find it lovely, practical and eco-friendly. For only 1,500 pesos.

While paying for my groceries yesterday @ Rustan's, I saw this bag and the cashier told me it's for only 99.50 pesos.


A self-proclaimed environmentalist, I bought one for myself. =) One thing I discovered, it's far way better than plastics because I just had to carry this as a shoulder bag so no matter how heavy or how many "pancit cantons" I'll buy, I can carry it easily. Hehehe.. So I'll be using this one everytime I do my groceries @ Rustan's. It's what we call the modern bayong. :teehee:

I'm actually looking for a diary that says, "I'M NOT A KALACHUCHI". Can you find one for me??
