ONE OF TEN SOCIAL MEDIA THEMED RATBAGS
Protecting the environment is no laughing matter, however that doesn't mean you can't do it without a smile on your face. Ratbags have released a range of reusable shopping bags that are not only environmentally friendly, but with their bold messages are sure to be a talking point at the supermarket checkout. Like traditional green bags, Ratbags are made from non-woven polypropylene, a recyclable thermoplastic polymer that can be melted down and recycled into garden stakes, garden furniture and flower pots. The black bags come in packs of five and are emblazoned with savvy statements covering a range of themes. The social media range is now available and more, perhaps cheekier, themes will be released soon. The heavy-duty bags are for all-purpose shopping and can be reused time and time again or recycled at most large supermarkets including IGA, Coles and Woolworths. A five-pack of Ratbags is priced at $35.99 and can be bought online at www.ratbags.com.au. For your chance to win one of ten social media themed ratbags visit roadahead.com.au.
