    Wonderful Product

    by Randall B - 07/2010

    I bought this set and two extra bags. I love them. They are tough, good-looking, and large. They sit up just like the paper bags of old, so that your groceries are easy to bag. A great tool for the Stewardship of Creation.

    Always a positive experience with ACME

    This is my second set of personal bags. I have also bought a set for my parents and two of my siblings. We all love our ACME grocery bags. It is amazing how many grocery items you can pack in one of these strong, durable bags. We also find that we use the bags for toting other stuff too - very handy!

    Great Gift

    by Sydney S - 01/2010

    2 out of 2 customers found this review helpful

    I bought these bags for my parents as a Christmas gift. They really liked the size of the bag, the pockets on the front, and the strength of the material. Since they usually use the brown paper bags at the grocery store and accumulate many of them throughout the year, they were excited to have a reusable alternative. I am not sure if they will use the produce bags, but I think that is a habit they might start getting into if they start relying more on the bigger reusable bags, so I liked that the produce bags were included in what I purchased.

    LOVE These Bags!

    by Jason R - 12/2009

    I was a little nervous spending so much on a set of bags I had never seen before, but I was NOT disappointed. I used these 4 bags along with two bags I had already and came home from a BIG shopping trip without a single plastic bag. I was amazed how much they could hold. The checkout lady was also impressed that they stood up by themselves, which made it super easy for her to load them up. I just wish there was a rating better than "Good" because these bags are excellent!

    We use these bags almost every day for shopping. Checkout folks think they're great. They are extremely sturdy and easy to pack into. And they're ligth weight, so they're easy to tote to the store.

    My recycled PET grocery bags are wonderful! They have all the features I was looking for -- durable, washable, great design. I keep them in my truck so I always have them along (even for unexpected shopping stops). Now I have to get a set for my husband's car and a few others on my Christmas list. :) Thanks for a great product!

    I was looking for grocery bags that were large, well constructed and made from recycled materials. The Recycled PET EarthTote Grocery Set exceeded my expectations. I ordered them in black and was very pleased with the quality and roominess. The material is very durable and the front pockets are handy for small items. It is a almost more of a pleasure to get groceries now knowing my items will be all packed away in these cool bags. Since I started using them, I've received a lot of compliments and requests on where I purchased them. I have 4 bags and they definitely hold a good week's worth of healthy groceries for us.

    I absolutely love these bags

    by Karen B - 05/2009

    I absolutely love these bags. I am so glad I purchased them. I always hated those store plastic bags that would slosh around my car trunk. I should have bought them sooner. I can't believe how much I can fit in these bags and they are very sturdy. I can fit into these four bags what would normally take ten to twelve store plastic bags. I would highly recommend these bags. It is not only beneficial to use them in place of plastic or paper but they also pack very well and are much sturdier and easier to carry.

    I love the products on this site

    by Gabriella D - 11/2008

    I love the products on this site. Recently I decided that I needed a more durable reusable grocery bag set. This one really fits the bill. The bags are lightweight but can carry tons of groceries and the handles make it easy to carry and lift. Even the bag boys love this set because they resemble the brown paper bags and are easy for them to pack. The cloth produce bags that came with the set also come in really handy at our local farmer's market. Thanks for making such great products available.

    I LOVE THESE BAGS!

    by Lisa C - 09/2008

    1 out of 1 customers found this review helpful

    I LOVE THESE BAGS!!! I went food shopping yesterday and bagged all 95 items in 6 bags. The cashier remarked that she couldn't believe that I got "all that" in 6 bags. These bags are very deceiving to the eye. They are very large inside and hold much more than the average paper bag. They are also very strong. I've loaded them down with a gallon of milk and many, many canned goods and they take it all! Never again will I use paper or plastic. Two added bonuses, my store gives me 5 cents off my shopping order for every reusable bag I use and I love the feeling that I'm doing something good for the environment. Well worth the investment!

    by Gypsy T - 08/2008

    I can't think of anything different I would want in a reusable grocery bag. They aren't too big, so the teenagers don't fill them with 50lbs. of groceries that I then have to lug into the house.

    This set is outstanding

    by Michael E - 08/2008

    This set is outstanding. The large ACME bags hold a ton, and only do they hold a lot, they are VERY strong and sturdy. I've put 6 2liters in one bag and it held up great. The vegetable bags are easy to use with their drawstring closure. Just remember that they're going to add a bit of weight to anything that you buy as they are not made of flimsy plastic. But the increase in price is nearly negligible. All in all this set is a great starter kit, and I'll definitely be purchasing more of both items.

    The bags are realy nice except for one thing

    by yvonne m - 08/2008

    The bags are realy nice except for one thing....the handles could be longer to accomodate carriying them on adult shoulders. They seem to accommodate only very slight shoulders.....otherwise I would rate them as a five.
