- BAGGU Reusable Shopping Tote
BAGGU Reusable Shopping Tote
Called the “It bag of the future” by Teen Vogue, this stylish and ridiculously practical bag is one easy step in helping save the planet. Using one Baggu (“bag” in Japanese) for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags. One Baggu holds the contents of 2 to 3 plastic grocery bags. That means that six bags can hold a whole cart full of groceries! Baggu is machine washable, and folds up into it’s own pouch small enough to tuck into your handbag or pocket. Made of super-tough ripstop nylon in bright, fun colors, it’s the re-usable bag that’s eco-chic.

Pressure Cooker Set
Kuhn Rikon Duromatic Trio 11-Piece Pressure Cooker Set
By saving 70 percent of the gas or electricity normally used in conventional cooking, the pressure cooker can pay for itself in just months. A new generation spring-loaded valve uses red lines to show you at a glance whether the right pressure has been reached, and when cooking is done, you simply turn the knob for quick or slow release. Unlike old models, the Duromatic cooks quietly, without hissing, and five safety releases let you rest assured the pressure won’t get too great.
- Durable 18/10 stainless steel with solid aluminum core in base for quick, even heating
- New generation system is quiet and safe; saves time, money, and energy
- Spring-loaded precision valve; integrated lid locking; 5 safety releases
- Made in Switzerland; dishwasher-safe; 10-year warranty
