Aussie mum shares ‘genius’ Christmas hack for Woolies paper bags
- Replies 2
A regular shopper from Woolworths shared an unusual hack using the supermarket's brown paper bags.
The crafty mum shared photos on Facebook revealing how she repurposed the shopping bags from her groceries as gift wrap for the coming festive season.
"I found a use for all the paper bags I get from Woolies click & collect! I’ll add a red ribbon, and they’ll look schmick," she captioned the post in the Facebook group.
Each paper bag costs 20 cents. Photo from Facebook.
First, she deconstructed the paper bag by cutting down one side and then flattening it out.
She made sure the Woolies logo was facing down when wrapping the present so she could use the blank canvas on the other side.
You can use the blank canvas to write the recipient’s name or insert a holiday message. Photo from Facebook.
Comments flooded from fellow Woolworths shoppers gushing about the nifty trick.
"Love this!! I have heaps of these paper bags, so I’m stealing this one," one user said.
"Great idea," wrote another.
Upcycling your unused paper shopping bags is not only easy and affordable, but it also replaces traditional single-use wrapping paper.
Several supermarket giants are already rolling out their festive goodies just in time for the holiday season.
Earlier this month, Woolworths released the first products from its 2021 Gold Christmas dessert range with plum puddings, fruit mince tarts, shortbread and slices.
Coles also launched their 2021 festive range, which includes crackling ham roasts, summer berry trifles, and icing figurines.
On the other hand, Aldi traversed the premium road by launching products such as the deluxe 30-month matured pudding from the UK, which sells for $19.99.
There are only two months left till Christmas! Have you already figured out what to give your loved ones?
