My 11 year old absolutely loves the coin purse. She keeps it in her lunch sack and puts change in it for bake sales at school! She also really appreciates the fact that it's handmade.

I like that the bags are colorful so that they are easily spotted in a big purse. The size could be a little smaller for my taste.

Please note: Bazura bags are handmade using colorful recycled juice containers to form cool, one-of-a-kind styles.

Product Details

  • Dimensions: 3" x 4" Flat

    Bazura Coin Purses are made in the Philippines by a women's cooperative, utilizing used juice containers. These containers are purchased through a network of local school children. Indestructible and non-biodegradable by nature, foil juice packs clog landfills, fields and streets throughout the Philippines. Using clever designs that combine the material's strength & brilliant colors, the co-op helps keep the environment clean via this very cool method of recycling.

    About Bazura Bags

    Bazura Bags come from a women's co-op in the Philippines that set up a Livelihood Project assisted by the local village council. With almost no capital, the women found a very clever way to support themselves.

    Every day, children from the local schools collect over 50,000 used drink containers, called doy packs, then sell them to the co-op. The bags are sanitized and the women sew them together into attractive, durable bags.

    Unlike most third world factory workers toiling away in sweatshops, these women are entrepreneurs and shareholders. They work for themselves and have a positive impact on their community and, at the same time, they encourage environmentalism.

    Fact

  • It's estimated that millions of juice containers get thrown in the trash everyday in the Philippines.

    by Desiree P - 12/2008

    The small wallet from the Philippines, made by women. Gave one to my daughter and her BFF. They're 18 and 20 years old and REALLY appreciate the juice box design AND the fact that the purchase helped women financially. Stainless containers: haven't used them yet but gave one to daughter and one for me. I like the ease in which the top opens, yet feels secure enough not to leak. Lunch box (red) with removable divider. Good idea to have a removable divider. Daughter says she will make her sushi and take to school with her for lunch (college). Likes it very much

    Great little pouches!

    by Tina W - 10/2008

    Great little pouches! I purchased one for my son for days he needs to carry money for school (ice cream day, etc.) and he loves it! I also purchased a few for gifts for friends - so colorful and a great conversation piece to boot! My son currently has his rosary in his little pouch, lol!

    by Ellen J - 08/2008

    I like these little things. The only improvement would be if the customer could see an assortment of designs to select from.

    I bought one for me and one for my daughter

    by Jennifer F - 06/2008

    I bought one for me and one for my daughter. I put my debit card in the outside pocket and my licence and cash on the inside pocket. It works well in my purse yet it's small enough to carry in a pocket.

    I love this coin purse!

    by Angela P - 04/2008

    I love this coin purse! It's just right for my spare cash. There's an outside slip to even carry around my credit card and/or driver's license. The velcro closure is good enough to keep the coins in and not all over the bottom of my purse.
