Whole Foods Bags Its Banners

Finally, news about Whole Foods that doesn't have us clutching our heads like stunned monkeys. The natural-foods chain has partnered with Alchemy Goods to transform retired Whole Foods' marketing banners into reusable totes.
Handmade in Seattle, each bag features straps from reused seat belts, as well as handles from old bicycle inner tubes. We hear that these bags are very limited edition and will only be made available in stores in Northern California, Washington and Oregon when they're released into the wild in a few weeks.
Pricing hasn't been determined, but expect each bag to retail for around $25. ::Whole Foods

AHAHAHA! word!
Here is better alternative..... You can get some great reusable bags at www.Rejavanate.com . Not only do they eliminate the waste caused by plastic and paper bags but they are made from recycled burlap coffee bags, keeping tons of burlap waste out of our landfills AND the manufacturing process provides employment for individuals with developmental disabilities !!!! It’s a Win, Win, Win !!!
REI has also turned their ads into bags with Alchemy Goods, and they are already available too fwiw. I've got one already and it is a cool design and plenty big for lots of groceries. :)
of course in California sorry I live in Michigan
