Saky Sacks Review & Valentine's Day Giveaway

Have you ever heard of the Pacific Garbage Patch? Its a huge span of the Pacific Ocean, twice the size of Texas, that is overrun with plastic waste. Not only is it marring the beauty of mother earth and killing the ocean wildlife, it is also affecting the health of the human race. The toxins from this garbage are entering our food supply, causing infertility, obesity and worse. You may think there is nothing you can do to change this or make it better. But that's where you're wrong. With the help of companies like Saky Sacks, you can decrease the number of plastic bags that get tossed into our oceans. 




Saky Sacks is a fun and environmentally conscious company. They have created a line of designer reusable bags that make being eco-friendly fun.  They have dozens of beautiful designs that will fit anyone's style. They even offer some matching accessories. It is estimated that Americans alone throw away more than 380 billion plastic bags per year. If you purchased just one bag from Saky Sacks, you could help bring that number down. Buy one as a gift for a friend and you're helping the planet even more. Its one small step that can really make an incredible difference.





For our review, we  received the red and white Ikat bag which is perfect to sport on Valentine's Day. The bag is a good size and is much sturdier than a plastic bag. Its great for grocery shopping because you won't have to worry about it splitting open and all of your goods falling out and getting ruined. It also makes a great beach bag because it easily fits a few towels and other beach necessities. I love the bright colors and the  unique design.  They are a great way to take that first step to making a difference.



In honor of Valentine's Day, one lucky winner is going to receive the  Red Ikat Saky Sack.  To enter, visit Saky Sacks and tell me another bag you would love to have.
