    I watched 50 people going into Asda and they all had reusables. The same will happen that happened in Wales and Scotland will happen here. Peeps will not want to pay.

    Beattie, vegetables also carry bacteria! I wash bags I use regularly at the market, supermarket in a 60 degree wash with other stuff. Maybe vegetarians are more hygienic than carnivores by nature!

    I must admit my own morsbag don’t have a stamp because I know to re-use them and they are free. Maybe give the area stamped a little press to fix the ink.

    We have an everlasting stamp that we put inside on bags that it will show. We also have a very comprehensive printed leaflet that is sponsored. We use 10.000 of them a year. so lucky we have a sponsor!

    The stamp say ‘Please Re-use this free morsbag’

    I think they are great and save time and money in the long run πŸ™‚

    Whetstone Whales did a great job packing up when we were all tired and she missed out on the free ice cream, Tori did a bit of moonlighting for Sew Sociable so maybe transfer a couple from Butterfly Bags To WW.

    Beattie your figures are pretty impressive! Thank you!

    Yes Beattie, same school – Leicester Grammar. Tori and her friend Louise played a blinder, admirably aided by Mary Scissorhands and Harriet on the info desk. It was fun and relaxed, wonder clips were popular again! Brothers still in good form MC! πŸ˜‰

    Gorgeous! I think I am right in thinking Stefanie is in Butterfly’s (aka Tori) fat quarter exchange group. She told me that she always puts her fat quarters into a morsbag. I love it how the morsbag message spreads.
