Bringing your own bag is now the trendy way
Manhattan Beach resident Doug Lober began selling Chinese-made reusable shopping bags through his Internet site ReuseThisBag.com
Reusable bags have become trendy, with companies and groups handing them out for free at festivals and other events to promote themselves.
The popularity of reusable bags has created a niche industry of suppliers.
“This was supposed to be an environmentally fun thing I would run that would be two hours a day, and it’s scaled to a 10-hour-a-day monster,” said Lober, whose office is in Redondo Beach. “I barely have a minute to breathe, man. I couldn’t handle it, so I hired a sales guy.”
