We were walking by LUSH today, and one of their employees was outside.
She was dressed in about a hundred plastic bags, all pinned to her apron to form a very ugly dress, and she was screaming, “Turn in your bags! Turn in your bags!”
It’s too bad we were so creeped out, because it was an excellent idea:
Bring in your plastic bags to LUSH and get something much, much cooler: The chance to sample some of the cool company’s signature bath and shower goodies, and the knowledge that instead of your bags filling a landfill, they’ll actually get recycled.
But what about recycling the bags yourself by wearing them as a dress?
We wouldn’t recommend that – it’s a little too Marjorie-The-Trash-Heap from Fraggle Rock.
Oh god, please tell us you’re old enough to remember Fraggle Rock…

Red was my favorite. With her big red ponytails. She was definitely the most fashionable *sings* “down in fraggle rock!”
Ooh, that’s what this was about! I saw them today in Georgetown (DC) and wasn’t sure if they were protesting or part of some odd promo. It’s hard to tell in this city.
I barely remember Fraggle Rock. Barely.
I liked the doozers the best!

I still have my Fraggle Rock Puppets and VHS tapes. I was allergic to the yarn that was their hair, but I played with them anyways cause my Teddy Ruxpin scared me. lol…
OMG Marjorie The Trash Heap! I miss those days down at Fraggle Rock. Red was my fave too.
LOVE Fraggle Rock. I still have two of my Fraggle Rock dolls. Red, and… shoot! How could I forget the guy with pink hair?
Wouldn’t wear a pasltic dress, but the idea is interesting.
