New bag on the block

Tesco have done it again with an amazing shopping bag for an amazing charity. I missed out on the limited edition Cath Kidston Tesco shopping bag but I made sure I got hold of this one:

How fabulous is this Orla Kiely bag!  Even better is that 50p of the bag price is divided between CLIC Sargent Cancer Care for children and The Royal College of Art.  If you would like to know more about the amazing work CLIC Sargent does click here.

So for £4 a bag I think everyone should grab one (or a few!), its a guilt free purchase :o)

    That's a cracker. I think about six people in Australia would know the name Orla Kiely.

    I saw this in my branch of Tescos, walked around with it on my arm then had a chat with myself and had to be sensible as the last thing I need is ANOTHER bag for life, especially as I have a tendancy to forget them when I actually go shopping!

    That is a beauty all the better for helping good causes. I'm still wearing an Orla Kiely silk scarf which came free with Marie Claire about 7 years ago. xxx

    Is it going to be another debacle like the Cath Kidston bags I wonder? Lets hope not and they learned the lesson and actually send them out to all the stores this time!

    Orla is waaayyy better than Cath any day! But like F&M, I have about ten bags for life! (Still might be tempted if they have them in my branch...)

    These are great, saw them in Tesco a couple of weeks ago. I'm sad I didn't get the CK one, didn't shop at Tesco then but have now moved closer to one!

    Bee happy x
    Have a delicious day!

    Very cute! I'd never heard of Orla Kiely. Good to know *winks* I feel ever so much more worldly after visiting your blog Scarlett *winks* And that's a very good price for a good cause. Vanna

    That's a really nice shopping bag! I always take my own re-usable bags to the supermarket.. I feel bad about taking plastic bags.. I leave that to the rest of the uncaring population! xxx

    I have SO many 'bags for life' - I'm so forgetful that I'm always forgetting to take them with me when I go shopping. Still they always come in handy. We got one of these a couple of weeks ago - Ben loves it - he's so metrosexual!

    How lovely! My supermarkets only have boring plain coloured bags on offer. Although at least the one for breast cancer was a pretty hot pink!

    Wow!!! I am so happy u shared this! I absolutely LOVE Orla. I read a massive article on her in the Independent the other day, it showed a picture of her ACTUAL KITCHEN in it and she had a bag JUST LIKE THIS!! Maybe it was the same! I am going to get one and I am sad that I too missed out on this Cath Kidston bag!
    Thank you for sharing, following :) xxx
