After all the hoo-ha about the 'I'm Not a Plastic Bag' came the inevitable backlash, and now the humourous send-up. Marissa Vandersee, a California-born market trader is selling her 'I'm Not a Smug Twat' bags for £15. "I came up with the idea when I saw reports of people queuing at Sainsbury's. I don't understand why anyone would want to queue for hours just to get their hands on a bag. It seems crazy."

Vandersee makes the bags herself and sells them at London's Brick Lane and Broadway markets: "They're supposed to be ethical and yet it turns out they're exploiting people. My bag might be a bit more expensive but the only cheap labour I'm exploiting is me. She added: "I also support local sourcing and production. My fabrics are sourced in Northern Ireland, England and Italy, while they are produced in London and Wales." (via Catwalk Queen).

    Queing for anything other than food during WAR is BEYOND SAD.

    No, queuing for Cocaine Kate's rehashed clothes was equally sad.

    so its ok to queue for Cocaine Kate's clothes that she didnt have anything to do with, but its not ok to queue for a bag....?



    I'm quite tired of all the negativity surrounding this bag. as the spokesman from You Are What You Wear said, 'they only wanted to get the message about plastic bags out there'. and BOY did it work!

  • It's so brilliant, I had to buy one. I hope I bump into some mug who has bought the Anya Hindmarch bag on eBay for a squillion pounds when I'm carrying it!
