Ladies & gents,
Here is a link to free patterns to make reusable tote bags. These bags would also make great gifts. Ooh and swap gifts (thinking). I use my resuable bags just about everywhere I go to shop: at the grocery store, fabric shopping, to the market & at craft shows.

My reusable bags also helps me to control my spending; once my bag is full, I am done shopping. So I can say that my reusable bags help me to save money in more ways than one. Smile.
