spreading the word about reusable bags

Last night while the DH and I were going through the self-checkout at the grocery store, a cashier came up and started asking me about my reusable grocery bags.  At first I thought her tone was accusatory, but then I realized she was just curious – asking where I got them and how sturdy they were.  I tore off the tag from one – sewn in explicitly for the purpose of tearing it off and giving it to other interested parties.  The tag explains the concept behind using these bags and not plastic or paper.  I’m happy to brag about the bags – I love them!
