Reisenthel Carry Bag Review & Giveaway




Here in America, the quest to go green and do more for our environment has led many of us to try to find alternatives to plastic shopping bags. But in Europe, they have been ahead of the game. Carry Bags have been in style there for years, and Reisenthel is a company that has been providing them for more than 40 years. Their adorable market bags are the perfect way to head to the grocery store in style. They offer a variety of canvas bags and Carry Bags in dozens of trendy styles you are sure to love.






For my review, I received Carry Bag in mocha with white dots. I have a few others, but none offer the quality and convenience of this bag. They are deeper than they look in the pictures and are great when you have to run to the store for just a few items. They sturdy handle can carry the weight of a gallon of milk and more without bending or the fabric tearing. Inside the basket you will find a zippered pouch. This allows you to bring your cash or credit card with you, so you leave your purse behind. When you're done with your shopping for the day, the bag folds flat for easy storage. So it doesn't take up too much room in your closet. In addition to shopping, the Reisenthel Carry Bag is perfect for picnics and other outings and is also a stylish way to store things around the house.





In addition to the Carry Bags, Reisenthel offers lots of other styles of bags and boxes including luggage, storage boxes, lap top bags, bottle bags and more. They even have insulated bags. To find a store that sells these adorable accessories, be sure to check the store locator on their website. While you're visiting,  help celebrate their 40th anniversary by entering for a chance to win a Vespa and lots of other exciting prizes.  And remember, no matter what you need to carry around with you, Reisenthel will have just the right bag for you.
