Its-laS-tik sacks sends plastic bags packing
If Sue Princiotto has one message, it's that its-laS-tik is better than plastic. Try saying that three times fast. Her new product has a rather tricky name, but a simple objective: reduce the single-use plastic bag pandemic while supporting a stock of good causes. It doesn't hurt that they come in cute, fashionable patterns, either.
