Reuseniks

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Jane, a new mom, joined with a friend and came up with an idea that would change the world for the better. Fed up with the plastic bags they kept getting from their dry cleaners, they stopped using them. Instead, Jane wanted to “reuse”, so she grabbed an old garment bag and THREW HER DIRTY CLOTHES INSIDE IT AND TOTED IT TO THE DRY CLEANERS…But the garment bag was not quite right for her needs. So she put a drawstring on the bottom and a zipper in front and made the bag out of extra-sturdy, 100% cotton. Jokingly, as she started “reusing” the bag, she called herself a Reusenik, and the bag she created became a Clothesnik. The rest is Herstory…
