Decatur is BYOB, bring your own bag! Decatur boutiques offer a local, earth-friendly alternative to plastic and paper shopping bags. Decatur's reusable tote bags are made from recycled plastic bottles and will be available for sale at participating boutiques for $15. Customers receive 10 percent off their orders when they bring in their Decatur bag. I got mine for free at Decatur First Bank for switching my paper statements to e-statements. We were at Kaleidoscope the other night and the owner, Camille (who has an amazing skill for fitting you in great jeans) told us that she, along with Calia from Squash Blossom, Penny from Boogaloos and Lampe-Farley Communications all worked on the design and production of the bag. It was all done right here in Decatur, GA. These chocolate brown bags with green logo are roomy and very well made with a zipper to close it all at the top. They would make a great gift.
