silksackWith over 8 billion plastic bags used every year in the UK alone silksack is the smart alternative. Sumptuous to touch, reusable and tough but lightweight it is the very opposite of a plastic bag.

 

Made from 100% silk, the silksack is a bag designed to be always with you, a practical alternative to acquiring unwanted plastic bags during spontaneous and every day shopping. The bag is stylish and strong yet folds neatly into itself to form a palm sized pad, which is comfortable to carry in your handbag or pocket.

 

Just four fewer plastic bags a week, and in 20 years you'll keep 4,160 bags out of the landfill sites

Good luck with the frugality though; it's a nice idea.
