Totes McGotes
Secure the bag.
When Big Thrift Energy came out last July, I had a slew of tote bags made to give to all the people who showed up to my launch party (and some to send to people who got advance copies of the book). I’ve had a lot of questions about those little totes in the months since so, I made some more!
This first batch are a university-style, 100% cotton canvas. Ideal for holding smalls at a thrift store, taking with you to the grocery, or for storing your copy of BTE, there are only a handful available but they can be shipped anywhere in the continental U.S.
And if these go over well, some other merchandise will be forthcoming, that much I know for sure.
