Moped advertising? Say what?

Our friends at Coast 2 Coast Mobile Media just keep on surprising us with their crazy ideas. They recently showed up at our office on one of the coolest advertising contraptions we've ever seen... a mobile moped billboard! Here at Gorilla Sacks, we would consider ourselves to be billboard connoisseurs who know all the ins and outs of recycling these beastly signs. After Coast 2 Coast showed up this week, we had to tip our hats and pass the torch of ingenuity to our friends. After all, it's not everyday we see something new in a part of advertising that hasn't changed in years.

Moped advertising!

From Coast 2 Coast

There is just nothing quite like being in the Gorilla Sacks warehouse when we get a new supply of billboards. Our hearts start beating a little faster, our stomaches get tied up in knots, and we start getting a little jittery in anticipation of what lies within the folds of billboard material. Will it be a cool rock band, rapper or jazz musician? Will it be a new movie, t.v. show or news anchor? Well thanks to Coast 2 Coast Mobile Media we had a very exciting morning unpacking all sorts of great billboards. Coast 2 Coast Mobile Media was kind enough to recycle some very cool billboards with us so we can make even cooler bags out of them. It goes without saying that if it weren't for the generosity of the good people at Coast 2 Coast Mobile Media, we wouldn't be able to make such fantastic products. And that would be sad. Thank you Coast 2 Coast Mobile Media!!

Bit by the recycling bug

Here at Gorilla Sacks we just love hearing that people have caught the recycling bug. We couldn't help but let out a yelp of glee when we received this photo from our friends at Comstor Outdoor. They wanted to let us know just how excited they are to be recycling their billboards into Gorilla Sacks bags. Well Comstor, we're excited too! There's no feeling quite like the one you get when you find an innovative way to help save the planet. We just hope the recycling bug will go right on biting!

Dirty Beauty, Beautiful Bags

The perfect gift comes in a recycled bag... well, in a perfect world anyway. Gorilla Sacks just adores this Gorilla Sacks goody bag full of great items for some quality self-pampering time. Dirty Beauty put this gift bag together for EarthShare's Earth Day silent auction and we don't think they could have done a better job. Dirty Beauty makes all-natural skin care products (because "beautiful skin comes from the ground") and this gift bag is just full of their wonderful items. We think the only thing that makes this goody bag even more fantastic, is the awesome Gorilla Sacks bag it comes in!

Sir George

At Gorilla Sacks we definitely know what it feels like to get that entrepreneurial itch. That brief moment of clarity in an otherwise cluttered and constantly churning mind. So when we received a photo of a statue wearing a Gorilla Sacks bag, we knew this wasn't just another zany photo. This is the man of invention himself (well, one of them anyway), the man who made our morning commute to work possible... the man who invented paved roads. Yep, Sir George Bartholomew invented the modern day paved road, and for that our cars are truly thankful. Our friends at Comstor outdoor spotted George supporting his fellow entrepreneurs by wearing a Gorilla Sacks bag.

George Bartholomew, inventor of roads, entrepreneur at heart, and just darn cool guy sporting a darn cool bag.

On the road to fame...

... well, sort of. We know we're not in Hollywood yet, but small business folk like us get pretty excited when the likes of our fave local newscaster talk about our very own Gorilla Sacks bags. That's right. Gorilla Sacks was recently featured on our city's very own "Good Day Atlanta" in a story about health-conscious makeup. The whole Gorilla Sacks family was awake all night in anticipation of the next morning's news show... and when we awoke we were like beaming, proud parents watching our little Gorilla Sacks children on television. Ok, maybe that went a little too far, but it was definitely awesome!

Follow the North Star

Here at Gorilla Sacks we know we wouldn't be where we are without the generous support of friends of ours like those at North Star Marketing. North Star Marketing sends their retired vinyl banners our way so we might save them from a life underground. We know we can't save the world alone, so we thank you North Star Marketing for contributing to our efforts. We were even lucky enough to receive a photo of a Gorilla Sacks bag in action! 

How many bundles of asparagus can fit in a Gorilla Sacks bag?
