Welcome to our Simple Holiday Gift Bag in which instead of doing a "gift guide", we do that AND give them away to our readers. All the info is below. Happy Holidays!
We love reusable tote bags, especially the ones that are easy to store and remember ... That's why we really like these flip & tumble bags -- they roll up into a tiny ball that you can stuff into any purse (or cargo pants pocket?). The bags can be purchased for $15 on flip & tumble's site, but why not comment below and potentially win a pair for free?

i would use this all the time...
I have one! They're amazing - The fabric seems like what they use for backpacking tents.
I can't get enough of resuseable totes. I stuff them in both of our cars (yay, Prius!) but it seems like we're always one short at the store.
Oooh, I always forget to bring bags- I need to keep one on me at all times!
smatmer - I always forget mine too! These would be perfect to add to my collection, so maybe I might not be so forgetful.
I normally keep a tote bag with me but it's bulky--these seem like a better option!
I brought back reusable grocery bags from Australia for a number of people, they had them for 99 cents at the market well before the US was on the bandwagon. but i would love one to keep on me or in the car always!
the smaller they get, the more practical it is to keep one with you. it's hard to keep a canvas bag on hand all the time, but these synthetic material ones crush down to something more compact halfway decently. with any luck it'll be able to fit into a smaller pocket than the ones on cargo pants!
I'd love one of these for my purse. My hubby and I already have a rule that we cannot take plastic or paper, so this would prevent me from overflowing my pockets, purse and arms for the walk home!
so convenient, and so cute!
These would be great to bring to the grocery store! Keep in my purse until i'm ready to check out, very handy.
I love reusing bags! It is fun to piss off the check out people at the uncool stores by having my own bags.
yes, so easy to keep with me and not gather up large quantities of plastic bags
I need this! I am car-less and constantly lugging stuff home from the grocery store, etc. I have some reusable bags I use but they don't scrunch up and aren't nearly as cute.
I feel so bad when I come home from the store with a load of plastic bags that I just throw away. These would be the perfect solution.
ooh, pretty please!?
I have several reusable bags, but have trouble remembering them, especially when I take the bus instead of the car. This would be perfect.
Great replacement for my old fraying cotton net bags.
These look like they would take up less space in my purse. Sometimes it's better to not have a bag. That way I don't buy more than I can carry in my two hands!
I'm in :D
I could totally use these! Looks like they'd fit nicely in a small diaper bag.
I try to reuse bags when I go shopping, but I always seem to forget to bring them - don't remember til I get to the store. If I had bags this small, I think it'd be easier to remember - just put them in my purse after emptying them from a trip!
I would LOVE some of these! With a new baby, I never have a free hand for grocery bags -- something that I could store in the stroller and whip out on those last minute grocery trips would be great!
With 2 kids, there's always SOMETHING to carry. A bag that's large, light and yet compact is a mod mom's little helper! Yes, please!
Oooo. A yoga mat fits in it!
giving something like these for christmas, would love some for myself.
i would love these ! there's nothing more satisfying than the angry glares of checkout girls when you pull out your own bag.
enter me, please...
me too.
this would be perfect to tuck in my backback next to my tiny umbrella... perfect for those last-minute shopping trips... or when i forget my reusable bags (like always!).
I also like that a yoga mat fits in it.
This would go o-so-nicely with my aging tote.
I need this! Just the other day I forget my canvas bags in the car when I went in to Whole Foods. The girl at the check out counter just stared at me when I said that no, in fact, I did not have my own bags with me.
So cute!
If I had this bag, I would never, ever forget my totes at home. Promise.
The wife is gonna love these!
Those bags are adorable! Love being green and being cute!
I love that they're washable and that I don't have to advertise Whole Foods on my bag!
I'm giving cute reusable bags for Christmas gifts. These are really cute!
These would be great! Enter me in the contest, please.
Cute colors!
very cool
Maybe one of these days I'll win one of these giveaways!
hooray for totes!
love one, my current tote is on its last leg.
this would be lovely
yes, please
one for me and one for my mom:)
Love the Colors!
down with plastic!
This would me a great gift.
This would be great - easy to keep with you for those unexpected shopping finds!
Those would be so much nicer than my free Trader Joes bag I tote around.
Sounds like a great idea!
i'd love some of these! to give away... nah, to keep.
I like to carry things.
bag it!
you can never have too many reusable grocery bags.
this would make a great gift!
This tote would be so useful for farmer's market trips!
This would be a fantastic gift for my parents to encourage eco-friendly shopping....
I love these!
these bags are great!
the more reusable bags the better!
I love reusable bags!
super cool!
Love'em. Fairway, here I come!
my problem is always having not enough reusable bags ... so I'd love these.
I love them. So posh, so chic. Would look great with some asparagus sticking out of em.
Reusable bags are so handy.
Ooh! I'd LOVE this!
very nice reusable bags!
Nice.
I'd love these. Three weeks ago, I loaned my beloved sturdy canvas Trader Joe's bags to a coworker who was shopping on her lunch hour, and she STILL hasn't returned them despite daily hint-dropping and pleading.
much nicer than the green whole food bags
I would love this. I would give one to my mother and keep one for myself! I use totes all the time but I could use something that folds up small and can go with me to work for those last-minute stops at the grocery on the way home.
I'll take em!
free?
I would love to pull out my own bag in Macy's and say "no, please, use mine."
love em! much more stylish than the bags i use now!
i'm such a sucker for totes
ok...I have this big, and I mean BIG reusable tote from Time Warner, but the thing takes sooo much space in my bag that i never use it. If only I could win the flip & tumble tote, my life would be soooo much easier & greener.
I was looking at these on their website recently and they were all sold out. These would be perfect to carry in my purse so I could go shopping on my way home from work.
These are so cute!
these would be great for the beach
so handy
These would be perfect gifts to try and get my family in on the reusable bag thing. But it would also be really difficult to part with.
this would be great! i always forget my bags for the farmers market
They are perfect and would be great for my shopping expeditions.
Love them. I know the gifts are probably subject to which company will donate them, but I'd love to see an entirely eco-friendly gift guide/giveaway!
Oh, how handy!
these would come in handy in my crusade against plastic shopping bags
Do I really need more reusable bags? Of course!
Great Concept...I would use these!
Love it! This would be so handy.
This would be great for the Farmer's Market or Fairway ... The one that I use now is slightly too small - this looks like the perfect size.
Those look awesome! Enter me please!
this would be used constantly.
It's so green!
Lovely, I'd use it all the time!
Save the earth and look cool doing it.
Nice!
i'll take it
i would use these every day!
cute bag!
Such pretty colors. :)
tote-ally!
I'm loving the shoulder strap....very handy!
Ahh yes, more ways to look chic while doing un-chic things! :)
Cheers,
jewels
Looks great!
yay, no more plastic grocery bags!
Great for in the car!
I could totally see myself using these everyday!
please?
Totally tote-eriffic!
I love these
Love the bags! Would use them all the time for groceries, etc.
i am planning to give all my family reusable little totes for the holidays. yahoo to you!
I just moved to NY and am in the middle of the apartment-stocking phase that involves all sorts of trips to the store to buy things that you don't realize you need until you reach for them and notice that they're not there.
Things like toilet paper. Ahem.
These would be perfect.
OOh I looove these. And I've been looking for some good totebags for my shopping.
brilliant!
handy addition to the market bag pile
I love totes.
So. Very. Cute. I'd love one!
Totes I have a bulky and I often forget them- but since this fits in a purse I would keep it with me and use it. Love this!
Oh how I covet these! Every time I forget the big ones I think of having a few of these in the glove compartment...
Feeling lucky on this one.
Totes are awesome.
How easy! These would be great
we've completely switched to re-useable shopping bags, these would work well!
Love these bags.
Perfect for going to the farmers market
Thank you!
I can't wait to feel the bag.
So cute!
This is a much cutier option that the bag I use now.
cute, cute, cute!
This is exactly what I'm looking for. No more reusing the same Whole Foods bag.
This would be perfect for my newly green Mom!
yes!
I'll be toting my groceries a bit further now that I've moved and these would be perfect for that.
love this! such a great idea
These seem great!
I've been eyeing these! I would love to win one!
I've been looking at bags like this recently and was going to buy family members ones for Christmas. This would be great to win!
good for the farmers market
i want
Pick me, please! I'm always forgetting my bulky canvas totes--a compact one would be perfect.
farmer's market fun. or safeway. whichever.
I could have this with me all the time, and never have to think about whether or not I should stop for errands and carry stuff home! (Plus it's light ... easy on my recently tendonitis-inflicted shoulder!)
These are great
Count me in!
My big chance to save .10 at Whole Foods (and help the environment)!
I like reusable things. These are neat.
good for everything! i'd give on to my sister, soon to be mother of two.
these would definitely be put to good use.
saving the environment one reusable bag at a time. these are light enough to keep in my backpack all the time. so handy.
always convenient to have an extra bag in the backpack that doesn't take too much space
yes please!
great size! love that it's a tote.
i could use one of these :)
Ooh, I love using reusable bags!
Handy
Neither paper no plastic for me, thank you. I'll take Nylon!

Great!
Yay for reusable bags!
i am obsessed with reusable bags and also carry a few with me at all times. these are so cute!!
this help me carry grocery's and books....:) looks very comfy
help me help the environment
Yes, please.
I need this.
I need one of these for my purse; I'm always carrying rolled up plastic bags and they take up too much room.
My fruits and veggies could cuddle up to each other and keep warm inside their new little pouch.
I think these could carry my life around - wonderful!
These would be great for grocery visits!
If I could keep a reusable grocery bag in my purse, then it'd be impossible to forget, *forcing* me to be environmentally friendly!
Looks useful; thanks for the contest!
These would be great....I would put them to good use! Thanks for the chance to win!
I'd love one. I do bring canvas bags when I make planned grocery trips, but this would be great for those unplanned quick stops I make. Thanks.
These are wonderful! I would love to have these bags to go shopping with.
I would love to have a set of those for my car!!
We'd use those bags all the time!
nice.
cool.
Me too!
Love the colors. Thanks!
Love these!!
oh I so need something like this!!! What a nifty invention!!!
Love this. What a nifty was to always have a couple (resuable) shopping bags on hand!
Sooo practical!
Stylish!
very cute
good looks and function; I want these and I NEED these too.
Fantastico! I keep forgetting my bags at home when I go to the store on a whim...this would sure help! And do so adorably!
These are so cool! Much nicer than ratty canvas bags.
I love this! I reuse bags all the time so this would be perfect for me.
Great colors! I love reusable bags.
how perfect...it looks sooo durable...ive been looking for something like this....way more durable than a canvas or burlap sack :)
Please randomly select me!
Neat bags! I have a thing for bags!
I would so love to have one of these! I have been wanting to purchase multiple reusable bag for groceries, general shopping, et cetera. But, because I want multiples, I feel it is somewhat cost prohibitive for me right now. Recieving one for the holidays would be a great way to start realizing my goal!
This would be an awesome gift for my mother
Please enter Margo Morgan.
This looks good for the environment. Sign me up.
I need a good library tote!
very cool! these would work so well with the double stroller...it is so difficult to pull a cart behind me!! fingers crossed...
Looks VERY useful!
These would come in so handy when shopping with a toddler!
So much nicer than the bulky canvas ones I always forget!
This would motivate us to finally quit using the store's plastic bags.
I'm giving reusable bags to my family for christmas this year!
Me please!
We have two ugly bags from our market. . . these looks SO much nicer!
cool!
How cool is that! I love it!
I would love these for my many trips to ALDI (or as my husband calls it "bag & drag") Thanks!
I would use this every Saturday to pick up my veggies at Eastern Market!
I buy my veggies off the back of a truck, my groceries from the store, spices from the Indian store, more specialized produce from the Korean supermarket, and my mango milkshakes from the Vietnamese joint down the street.
I need bags for this.
The farmers market is so incredible here in Santa Cruz, and I always end up with way too much produce to fit in my one bag. The more bags the merrier, right? From shopping, to summer outings at the beach, these would be super handy. Thanks again AT!
Green all the way.
I could really use these on my grocery errand days
I've got a couple reusable grocery bags, but I could definitely use more.
These look great! I keep reusable bags with me, and never seem to have enough.
Wow- I love these bags~
Love the dual color combos ...
Thanks, this would be ideal for the grocery store!
So handy, and such great colors!
i wish i knew how to make these
Great for Christmas shopping!
well done
Very nice.
wow, nice!
I could totally use this - I can never fit everything into the bags I have now.
Great versatile bags- would definitely be handy for in the diaper bag when we go to the library or somewhere else that you might need two bags for=)
yes, please
I'm going to Panama next week. This would be handy.
how perfect...i would use these all the time!
pretty please?
I can always use more tote bags.
I have yet to purchase one .. and maybe I won't have to! yay!
i always try to use as few bags as i can, and these are just so stylish!
so cute! i would love this :-)
Oooh. I like the blue one.
Great reusable bags. I really need to get one!
great bag and reuseable
I am so giving reusable totes as Christmas gifts. And these you can stuff in your purse!
I run to the grocery store and hate running holding a bag full of other bags. These look perfect for my needs.
These are pretty cool, count me in
Count me in please!
I was just going to order one of these! Merry Christmas to myself!
I live in Boston's South End and walk everywhere... I always feel so guilty when I end up going shopping without a tote with me and have to use the store bags. These just might be the perfect solution!
This has so many uses - gym, food, grandkids stuff, and looks good too. Great gift.
this was actually on my christmas list!!!
The key to switching to reusable bags is to make it easy to keep with you--these look great and I would LOVE to have them!
Love it! I could so use this.
i was going to get some as holiday gifts this year . . .
Fabulous!
very cool bag! I could find so many uses for this bag.
these look very nice, i'd definitely use it all the time.
I need this!
yay for being green
My mom and I would love these kick ass bags!
i'll take one
plastic bags are evil
These bags are fabulous!
cute!
these are great for grocery store trips Dar
i would love to have a couple reusable bags!
Oh I love these! I always forget my cumbersome totes... but these would be perfect to throw in my purse!
Looks very handy.

Those are so clever, and would be convenient to use.
I would use this for my grocery shopping all the time!
Who couldn't use a few more bags???
Yes, please!
This will fit in nicely with my collection of multi-use grocery bags!
That's bag to the bone.
Yay, having them small enough to stuff into a purse or pocket is so key! Thanks for hosting a great giveaway!!
We need 2 more bags in order to have enough to go plastic free when we grocery shop. I hope I win!!!
nifty
What a great idea! I could really use this!
I could really use these, I love that they're over-the shoulder bags. This is especially helpful when toting groceries up three flights of stairs!
I keep meaning to get some of these bags that fold up so nicely but I can never decide once I'm at a store where they're sold. Would be so cool to get some, finally!
Exactly what I need for the bus ride to work, or the walk to the grocery store, or the bike ride to the library.
Perfect!
we need some more collapsible reusable bags, oh yes we do...
I love these stuffable bags! You can't forget it if its in your purse or backpack.
now that grocery stores can't use plastic...i need something like this to haul my groceries up the hill! =)
I have a tote bag collection! Mace = dorky
I've been meaning to get a few reuseable bags. These ones would be perfect!
I already have two or three tote bags for shopping, but two more would be awesome.
Wow, I don't have any re-usable bags! Very cool, they look sooo nice!
I need these, count me in!
Those are so cute! And such great colors.
These are super cool. I am always taking bags with me as I shop around Chicagoland- don't have a car. These would be treasured, and believe me, used, and used often. Count me in!
great look
I like how deep they are.
I love bags. Any kind of bag. These look useful and stylish!
I'm diggin' the cloth bag revolution. I've carried my own bags since the 90's, but recently I've been getting others involved and picking up the pace myself (like I'd use my own at a place like Target, but then not the grocery store... I'm correcting that, one cloth bag at a time!)
Suzy :)
These are awesome!
Oh, I saw these the other day and love them, I have some envirosacks, but would adore one of these, especially to entertain the kids with and be able to use it for a bag, wow.
