VICTORIA - So you’re environmentally conscious at the checkout counter - but how about in the produce section?
At a time when many communities and retail stores across Canada are considering bans on plastic bags at the cash register, few have turned their attention to those thin plastic bags provided in the produce and bulk sections.
Now, just in time for Earth Day April 22nd, hotSACKS offers consumers its solution to this overlooked area of the grocery store. Meshy hotSACKS is our eco-friendly line of reusable, fully recyclable, mesh bulk bags.
“They’re strong enough for a dozen apples and yet versatile enough for your favorite wrapped candies,“ says hotSACKS founder Diana Nethercott. “Customers love these affordable bags because they’re durable, funky and guilt free. They’re also easy to clean and fully recyclable.”
Made in Canada, Meshy hotSACKS are sold in four funky colours - green, orange, blue and purple - and co-ordinate with hotSACKS’ line of fashionable, reusable and eco-friendly shopping bags. Now you can be ‘green’ at the checkout counter and in the produce section.
Meshy hotSACKS retail for only $4.99 for a package of 8. They are available at selected retailers including Home Outfitters (Déco Découverte in Quebec) and The Bay, as well as online at www.hotsacks.ca
