IKEA Quick Tip - Paper or Plastic? How about neither...

The first time I went to IKEA, I found these beautiful, big, blue bags. IKEA eliminated plastic and paper bags from their check-out, so I happily clunked down my $0.59 for the shopping bag and was on my way. Of all the things I bought that day, I think this ended up being my favorite.

The FRAKTA shopping bag has become my laundry basket when I travel, my towel bag when the family heads to the pool, a recycling bag when we're at a picnic, the bag I throw my BBBS or Goodwill donations into...you get the idea. It's huge, has two different size handles, which for some reason makes me happy, it folds flat, and it's easy to wipe down and clean. Don't forget to grab a few extra on your next trip to IKEA.
