Reusable Lotus Trolley Bag Review

Hello friends,

So I am a day behind Earth Day, but I think Earth Day should be every day because we all should care for our environment. I am teaming up with Lotus Trolley Bags to tell you a little about them. I actually reached out to this company personally to do a review for you guys because I loved their mission and purpose... and also loved the look & ease of their bags!

Let's dive in:

Here is how the package arrived:


The company that makes these is a US based company out of California. They are a small family run business. A portion of each sale will benefit a charity. 


They also have a 100% money back guarantee!


I love the colors & how the bags collapse and wrap up together. I asked them for the Club cart size because I shop a lot at Aldi & I also knew these could come in handy at Costco. These also fit Sam's Club carts. The package has 3 different bags and one of the bags is even lined for cold foods. There is a pocket for eggs or other things & sleeves for things such as wine bottles. The organizer in me is so obsessed how neat grocery shopping can be now. On their website, Club Bar Lotus Trolley Bags are $34.99


Here is a how to use video & here is FAQs

Below is me trying out my Club Lotus Trolley Bags at Costco. 


Overall, I really enjoy using these bags for many reasons. The biggest pluses to getting these bags is that they fit easily into your cart, keep things organized, all bundle together when you are not using them, and they have an insulated bag included. I think these bags would even make a good birthday, Christmas, or wedding gift for someone who enjoys grocery shopping or organizing. 

Lotus also sent me their produce bags to try. I got one of each size for a total of 3 bags. 


On their site, you get 9 produce bags (3 of each size) for $24.99. The bags are washable too! What a neat way to reduce your plastic use. I literally hate the plastic produce bags, but these Lotus one's made grocery shopping fun!


Overall, I really enjoyed the produce bags as well. They were not as cool as the trolley bags, but I believe they are super useful and way better for the environment than the plastic produce bags. 

Here are some places Lotus Trolley Bags have been featured: News


Each bag has it's own handles which is nice when transporting the bags from the cart to the car or from the car into your house. 



You can also use the bags for the beach, picnics, road trips, and much more. The poles are removable in case you need to use them for something else. 


You can also find them on Amazon! 


You can find them on Instagram here: Reusable Lotus Trolley Bags


Also, how cute is my mom! She was my Costco shopping buddy and enjoyed the bags as well!


I hope you enjoyed the review. The company sent me the bags to blog and review for you! Please remember to appreciate the Earth & take care of it for ourselves and future generations. We are so blessed to live in a world with such beautiful nature. What are some ways you help the environment? Comment below and let me know!

Here are some things I try to do:
1. use my Lotus Trolley Bags at the grocery to avoid plastic bags
2. Use a reusable water bottle or cup 
3. Use my reusable metal straw
4. Use washable plates, silverware, bowls
5. Recycle or buy things that are recyclable
6. Try to buy from bulk bins when possible

Have a great day friends!
