Lipton Shopping BagInnovative Shopping Bag Designs

 

Shopping bags are one of the most powerful advertising tools that a company has at its disposal. "Bagvertising", as it's called in the business, is a great way to build brand awareness and get recognized on the street. Most companies stick to producing bags with a catchy logo or a distinctive color, but every now and then a new bag design comes along that's so distinctive; carriers are turned into walking billboards for a company. Take a look at these 30 brilliant bags, each one quirky, creative and entirely unique in its own right.
