Grocery shopping is one of those necessary evils in life. We have to do it or our families will starve! The worst part of shopping has to be lugging all of those heavy bags from the car to the house. Ouch! My hands just ache afterward. Until now...

I recently had the pleasure of trying out one of the coolest household gadgets yet. It's called the Handi*Tote. This nifty little object allows you to carry up to 100 pounds of groceries (not that you would!) without hurting your hands! It's a marvelous creation, one that is sure to help people of all shapes and sizes carry their groceries with ease.

Here's how it works. The smooth plastic finish and curved design of Handi*Tote adapt to the natural contours of your carrying grip, even while it balances the weight of the grocery bags you carry. This design allows you to carry multiple bags without pain, you can set your bags down without all of the handles falling off of the tool, and you can easily pick the Handi*Tote back up again and carry your groceries into your home.

Here are a few ways that Handi*Tote has helped consumers already, including myself!

1) People who live in apartments in cities and have to walk a long way to the grocery store. The main benefit for these folks is simply using the Handi*Tote to keep the plastic bags from hurting their hands.

2) People who live in apartments but drive to the grocery store. Once they return home, these folks still have to walk a long way from the parking lots at their apartment complex to their apartments. Again, the main benefit has been avoiding hand pain, but another comment has been how nice it is that the handles of the plastic bags stay organized in the hook area of the Handi*Tote when someone sets down the bags. So when someone has to set down the bags to open front doors, elevator doors, etc., the bag handles don't go all over the place, and all one has to do is pick up the Handi*Tote and keep going.

3) People who live in houses in the burbs and drive to the grocery store. Avoiding hand pain has not been a big issue for these folks since they don't have to walk very far with the bags. However, the benefit of "hooking" all the bags in the grocery cart to easily load them in the car, then leaving the Handi*Totes on top of the bags to hold the handles in place, and finally when they get home to be able to easily pick up the
Handi*Totes with the bags already in place, has been highly praised by suburbanite customers.

I highly recommend the Handi*Tote and am amazed that it has taken this long for someone to invent such a... well... HANDY tool! To read more about the Handi*Tote, or to purchase one or two of your own (in designer colors!), please click here.
