Design Your Own Bags on Board Dispenser!
Even if you're toting the same Bags on Board container as everyone else (Naomi and Amanda included), create your own design starring your famous furball on the front. Add text, clip art, photos, borders, and frames to make a one-of-a-kind holder at MyBagsOnBoard.com (and, trust me, this can be addictive). The Design Your Own Dispenser ($7.25) comes with two printable, pre-cut skins or you can create and cut out as many as you want at home!
Switch up Your Bon Ton for Valentine's Day!
Wear a heart on the leash and show your pooch how much you heart her with a heart shaped bag holder. The Bon Coeur ($9.99) snaps to a lead or loop and comes in blue, pink, orange, and yellow. Plus, it conveniently holds 10 plastic bags – fitting the same size rolls as the popular Bon Ton waste kit.

Casa Verde(?): Fabriano
Italian designers Riccardo Nannini, Domenico Orefice, and Emanuele Pizzolorusso created Fabriano, a waste basket made entirely out of recycled paper. The muffin-cup-shaped basket consists of 50 pleated-paper disposable bags nesting inside one another. Each can be extracted and used as trash bags themselves when the bin is full, leaving the layer below ready to collect more paper/trash.
Ziploc 100-Calorie Snack Bags: Cool or Not?
I was over at my friend's house and saw a case of Ziploc snack bags in her kitchen. They're sort of like regular plastic sandwich bags, except about half the size. I asked her what the deal was with her bulk buy and she said that she couldn't resist after seeing "Perfect For 100 Calorie Snacks" scrawled across the box.
Casa Quickie: Trash Made Easy
Keep a small supply of trash bags at the bottom of your garbage can. That way, when you pull out your full bag, a fresh, new bag will be waiting for you. Just make sure you take out that full bag of trash, and refresh the bag supply when it gets low.
Soup's On: Cream of Fresh Tomato
While shopping at Berkeley Bowl, I came across the bargain section of fresh produce. Most of the time I won't glance at this section, but a two-pound bag of ripe red tomatoes caught my eye. At only $0.99 per bag, I couldn't pass them up since I had a hankering for a bowl of fresh tomato soup.
Evert-Fresh Bags
When I first saw Evert-Fresh Bags, I thought they were a gimmick. The thought of a bag being able to keep produce fresh for up to a month seemed impossible. But one of my old colleagues said that they worked for her, which made me curious enough to try them myself.
PetSugar Street Team: Roll 'n Clean Is the Best Litterbox Ever
An essential duty of kitty ownership is cleaning up the poop — can't be avoided. Now there are plenty of pricey products that come highly recommended (like the Litter Robot); however, community member Arcsis shared her love for an affordable alternative in the Street Team —this Omega Paw Roll 'n Clean Litter Box ($29):
My favorite thing about this is you never have to touch, or even come close to touching waste. You fill it with your favorite scooping litter, roll it upside down, roll back and empty the drawer.
Swoop In to Scoop the Poop
If you don't like handling poop — but don't hate it enough to buy a PooTrap — here's another way for you to be a hands-off, responsible dog owner. The Swoop Dog Poop Scooper ($20) and Swoop Mini Pooper Scooper ($18) lets a plastic mechanical hand do your dirty work. Fitting either their special biodegradable bags, or your ordinary grocery store variety, attach the sack on the bottom and it grabs and bags the waste keeping your hands completely clean.
Do You Like the Idea of a Paper and Plastic Grocery Bag Fee?
Seattle's city leaders were prepared to enact an ordinance that would charge 20 cents per paper or plastic grocery bag, but the plastics industry stepped in with a referendum to give voters the final say. The majority of voters turned down the referendum that would have charged for every bag received from supermarkets, drug stores, and convenience stores.
Supporters say the fee would encourage reusable bags, cut down on pollution and waste, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while opponents are mostly against the added expense.
