For the last several years, I’ve brought reusable shopping bags with me to place my purchased goods in at the store. It’s a green solution to lessen pollution caused by plastic bag production and also keeps me from having wads of bags laying around.Reusable shopping totes can be found near the checkout at just about every store I frequent. Most are generic and not well made. Run, Run, Run offers a different kind of bag that is fashionable and functional. The way I see it; when carrying a bag, despite if it only holds your groceries, make a statement. Run, Run, Run makes that statement with an assortment of colors and eye catching patterns of their shopping bags, lunch totes and accessories. They don’t skimp on durability either; using double stitched seams and waterproof fabrics on all their products. Starting at $13.50, these totes aren’t cheap for a reusable shopping tote, but being built well ensures longevity and therefore is worth the few extra bucks.
Hollie, Erin and I each received a Run, Run, Run bag to help us contain our goods on the go. Here’s what the gals had to say:
You know, a girl can’t have too many bags. I am not much a purse girl, but I love a good bag. I have a church bag, a work bag, a shopping bag, a trip bag. I love them all for different reasons. But my RUN RUN RUN Italia Shopper bag is the perfect go to bag. I love that it is an absolutely darling pattern (Pink Victoria) and that it is easily cleaned up. It is made of a sturdy, lined fabric. Best part…It is big enough to hold EVERYTHING, but folds into a tiny hand held package. We used it tonight to take treats to the softball game. Kept it folded until we got to the check out at the grocery store, unfolded, loaded the goodies in, off to the game. When it was over and treats were distributed, the bag was folded back up and stored for the next trip! A must have for a mommy on the go! ~ Erin
I am a BIG fan of reusable shopping totes. I love doing my part to help the environment. I recently had the opportunity to review a cute bag from Run Run Run. The Malibu Tote-Alexandria Links arrived and I was thrilled with the quality and the print. It’s adorable and I get compliments every where that I take it. My favorite feature is that it folds up and I can easily keep it in my purse, so I always have my reusable bag. I plan on using it for the beach & park play dates too. It’s super easy to clean and looks great toting around town on my shoulder. Thanks Run Run Run for making cute fashion print reusable bags that help us mamas Go Green! ~ HollieThe philosophy at Run Run Run is to help make the world a safer, cleaner place through superior design.

We hope we have achieved this goal and will continue to introduce products in keeping with this philosophy. ~ Run, Run, Run
I received the purple Bellflower Ikat San Francisco Tote. My first trip with my tote was to the grocery store to buy some pantry staples like bread and chips. There was plenty of room inside the bag; no squished bread for me! A large pocket on the interior is convenient for placing a cell phone or keys if you choose to bring just the bag and not a purse. I like the faux leather accents on the handle, closure and sides. They dress the tote up and provide reinforcement in areas that get the most wear and tear. When I’m finished with my bag, it’s simple to fold it up and only takes 6.25″x 3.5″ of space to place inside another handbag, or store when not in use.All Run, Run, Run bags are machine washable; no need to worry when your bag is looking shabby from all those grimy store counters; toss in the wash and refresh.
