Giveaway! Dandelion Organic Cotton 'Keep it Green' Tote Bag

By Stefanie Feb 7, 2010
Posted in Contests, Past

This giveaway is now closed

Dandelion Earth Friendly Goods' has created a new organic cotton diaper bag that can (and easily does) double as an everyday tote bag. Each bag has four outside pockets - one big snap pocket to keep valuables secure, 2 elastic holders for cups or water bottles, and 1 large catch-all pocket. The roomy open interior features 2 smaller snap pockets and quick-access key clip.

The tote bags are made entirely of organic cotton and use no pesticides or chemicals in the growing cycle. The new organic cotton canvas bag is versatile, fashionable and will become that one bag that will always accommodate any style. They are a great over the shoulder bag for a day out on the town, a day at the beach, an afternoon at the park with the kids, and also make for a great book bag -the possibilities are truly endless.

The Dandelion tote bags are basic and yet stylish enough where they can be worn with almost everything, and the pockets are organized well to make carrying everything you need for your day very easy. At $39.99, they won't break the bank, either, and are a nice, affordable alternative to expensive diaper bags. And now, Dandelion is helping support the relief efforts in Haiti. Enter promo code Haiti and $5 will be taken off of your purchase, plus $10 will be donated to the American Red Cross to assist those affected by the earthquake in Haiti. Expires February 14th.

Dandelion has been kind enough to send us a tote to give away to one lucky Focus Organic winner. This tote features the "keep it green" phrase with heart shaped recycling symbol.

I love all of my totes that I have. They look at me funny in the grocery store when I come in with all 10 of my bags. I would definitely be adding this to the collection. Or using it to bring my stuff with me when I sub at the kids' school.

great looking bag. I don't have diapers, but my gym clothes would be just perfect for this bag - better than using a recycled plastic bag!
