I love when large companies think outside the eco-box - it’s surprising and refreshing. I think the last time I wore Timberland boots were in the early 90s at sleepaway camp, when “Tims” waterproof boots (we had a different name for them, but this is a G-rated blog) were all the rage for the rain and mud. What a pleasant surprise when I found out they’ve launched an eco-line of shoes for men and women, called Earthkeepers, and take a strong stance of corporate responsibility towards the environment and human rights.
Timberland may feature a lot of leather items, but they’re making an effort to balance it out. Last October, when Earthkeepers was launched, an ad campaign with large billboards was featured around Boston and Providence. Now, the billboards have been recycled into reusable tote bags that are waterproof, sturdy, roomy, and all around awesome. I’ve been trying mine out with library books (and with my girls, that’s many, many books), the beach, and gymnastics gear. It’s a great bag, and I’m happy to be able to give away one bag each to five winners this week! These bags are only available at Timberland stores for $25, and they’re limited edition, so you can be sure that you’ll be carrying an eco-bag that most people won’t have.
Rules stay the same - leave a comment here with an answer to this question: what would you put into your Timberland billboard tote? This giveaway will be open until next Thursday, April 24th at midnight PST. Please remember that comments are moderated, so they won’t show up immediately, unless you enter while I’m glued to my computer (which is very likely). Good luck!
Thanks to Erica for all your help!
This contest is now closed! Thanks to everyone for entering, winners will be announced soon!
My wife & I are diligently working on only going shopping with our own bags. A large sturdy bag like this would be a welcome addition to our growing stash of reusable shopping bags.
I’d love to add this my stash of cloth bags. I’d use it to carry all the kid stuff that I have to lug around and bring it with me when I’m shopping for more gear.
I would use this bag to haul the many things my toddler son requires me to have outside the house. Diapers, wipes, sippy, goldfish crackers, and whatever toy has his fancy that day.
I will use them to grocery shop, as diaper bags, and a catch all bag for taking to church!
Groceries. Lots and lots of groceries.
I would have to try it on groceries and library trips….oh and the farmers market….
I would use them for shopping. Nice big sturdy bags to carry all my junk in!
I haven’t yet made the leap to reusable bags. I’d like to have one to keep in my car for short shopping trips to the convenience store.
I might try to begin using them for the quick trips to the grocery store…There is no time like the present.
Thanks.
this bag woild be perfect fpr everything & anything…shopping, beach, park…love it!

“Wow!” I have always loved “Timberland” gear, but it has been a long time since I have purchased anything from them! How great to know that these totes were made from their “Earthkeepers” billboards! Our family would also use them for library books, school books, workout gear, groceries, on campus and a take a lunch and file folders to work! I also go to a weekend retreat every fall and we bring treats to share. This bag could carry mine! Please enter me in your wonderful drawing. Many thanks,Cindi
I would probably carry my bible and sunday school books in it to church every week!!! What a fun tote!!! Thanks for the chance! ![]()
What an awesome, innovative idea for a totebag! That’s some fantastic thinking right there!
I would use the tote to lug around my daughters clogging shoes and equipment. She needs something rugged and roomy to handle all her stuff yet doesn’t have to worry about getting it all raggedy looking.
I would take it to the farmer’s market and stock it up with all kinds of goodies to share with my friends at work.
I’d use them for toting books to and from the library and for keeping miscellaneous toys and things in the car.
I don’t have any cloth bags but would LOVE to have some. This would go everywhere with me
This would be great for groceries.
I would use it for shopping . And toys/snacks for those long days out.
Library books and groceries. ![]()
I think this would make a fabulous library book carrier!
I would LOVE to win one of these! I think I would use it daily. It’s hard to find a REALLY sturdy tote for shopping. I would also use it for library books, going to preschool, the cabin, etc.
I would use my bags for groceries!
I ALWAYS have a lot of stuff to cart around. I’m cloth diapering my baby so that results in a lot of accessories. I also use green bags for grocery shopping. So I would use the bag for cloth diapers, baby stuff, and food.
I’d use it at my local grocery store and would probably take it to the pool. Great giveaway! Count me in. bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com
I think it would make a great pool bag for the summer.
Looks like it would be a good grocery bag. great giveaway, thanks!
I would love to fill this bag with fresh produce from our local farmers market!
I would use it as a diaperbag for my daughter OR keep it in the car for quick trips to the grocery store!
my groceries from trader joe’s and whole foods
Groceries. I know it is boring, but that’s what I would use it for. I am a little obsessive about library books going in the library bag, etc. Well, maybe we’ll venture out to the beach too and use this…Thanks for the chance.
I’d stock mine up with different things on different days. Sometimes Groceries, sometimes goodies for a picnic, use it as a snack/travel bag for trips, I could pack it with a ton of things.
With my new baby, I’m trying to create as little waste as possible - cloth diapers, reusable nipple pads, using breast milk bottles rather than disposable breastmilk bags. I’d tote my breast feeding stuff to and from work.
I would either use it for groceries or take my stuff to the beach in it!
Perfect to tote all my stuff and “the babe’s” stuff to the pool or beach!
I would put a mixture of my purse contents and my daughters diaper bag! Thanks!
I would use my timberland tote for library books, knitting, sunday school supplies or my crochet. I could take it with me wherever I go because there are just so many things I could use it for. I would love to win this!
I’d use it for all kinds of shopping ~ including grocery
*Thanks* for the giveaway!
I think the question is, what *wouldn’t* I put in an awesome bag like that?
I’d most likely use it for errands — to help carry groceries home, to put library books in, and so on.
I just started knitting, so all my knitting supplies would go in the bag for me to tote around! Love it.
groceries from the supermarket or the farmers market
I would put groceries from shopping or books from the library in it.
This would be great for shopping, to take to the library, or dance class!
I’ve never heard of recycled billboards…what a fun idea! I’ve been using reusable bags for grocery trips, but I could definitely use one more.
I my timberland billboard tote I would put a bouquets of flowers for my mother. Together it will be a nice gift for coming mother’s day. I totally agree on you that I really like initiatives like this by big companies. For the flowers I’ve heard about a website with an awesome idea. It’s the website www.floraqueen.com and during May they plant 5 trees for every gift you buy to celebrate mother’s day. This way you make not only your own mother happy, but also Mother Nature.
What a great idea! Recycled billboards… who knew. I would use the bag for shopping. We have cloth bags for groceries, but they are not very attractive. It would be nice to have a bag to take around on lesser shopping trips as well. Thank you!
I would use it for shopping at publix…lugging around the kids stuff to play dates…endless
So many great uses: Toting my 2-year-olds library books to and from the library, a bag for groceries and farmer’s market goodies.
groceries (i’m working so hard on remembering to bring my totes into the store with me) or fabric (bc I love to sew)
I would use this bag for all the odds and ends that I want to take with me when I travel around!
We have reusable bags for the groceries and shopping but would love a bag like that for going to the pool or the park. So when my little guy gets dirty I can throw the muddy stuff in there and through it in the wash
I’d use this bag for carrying and thing and everything. Shopping first, books, knittiing. Love the colors.
Saving all those plastic bags the trouble! I use them for grocery shopping and borrowing books from the library.
I would use it for grocery shopping as well. I really need to buy a couple of those totes from the store. I hate using so many plastic bags.
I would put either my beach or gym gear in my bag… or use it for grocery shopping too. This would be great!
I would use it for groceries or for toting books and videos back and forth to the library!
I use these all the time! For the farmer’s market, the library, as a diaper bag, you name it!
I have reusable grocery bags but they have our store name on it and are ugly so I just use them for groceries, so I’d love a bag like this to take shopping other places like at the mall to put my purchases in.
This will be a great bag for the farmer’s market, as well as toting books to and from the library!
All the necessities for outings with my daughter!
The possibilities are endless! I could use them for groceries, library books, baby gear, beach gear, etc. Thanks!
I would use it for grocery shopping. We have just started using our own bags and only have 4 bags. When we have a big grocery week, we don’t have enough bags and still have to bring home a bit of plastic.
I also like your idea of using it as a library tote. We go to the library every week and don’t bring a bag but the 3 year old always insists on carrying all the books. She usually drops them all.
I’m a teacher and I’m always looking for a great bag to carry my students’ work back and forth to my house so I can correct it.
I’d use these for pretty much everything, groceries, library books, and just keeping it in my car for shopping trips.
groceries, boating day stuff, picnic day stuff, pool day stuff…I could go on and on!
Groceries or library books. Great bags and Good for Timberland!
I would use one of these bags for the Farmer’s Market…or flea markets, or even yard sales! I can’t wait for Summer!
I’d use it for bringing my sons gear when he goes to play at grandpa house.
I would use it for grocery shopping as well as a purse/diaper bag.
EVERYTHING! i have been using several different reusable bags lately, but they are not as sturdy as these bags! i have 3 kids and so i am constantly running to the store for something and would love his cute bag to cut down on the plastic waste.
GROCERIES! I almost always take my own bags for groceries. I have made my own but I don’t have enough. These bags looks wonderful!
Well, it’s not a baby carrier, right? Just joking. The baby is probably the only thing I wouldn’t carry in this. I think it would be very useful for toting groceries and library books, although not at the same time…
I would use it as much as I could anywhere. From groceries to books and shopping. Maybe even travel. The concept is great. I would love to own a piece of a billboard. Truly unique.
would love to own one. i have 2 grandaughters and it could become the bag to go to gran’ma’s house…that would be so special. they look cool!!
I teach a class at our church every week and I would put my supplies in this really great bag!!
We would use it for groceries, the bag would also send a big message to other people. I would love to win this. Thanks for the giveaway!
This would be a great multi-purpose bag. I would use it for groceries, as a diaper bag, a beach bag, or a gym bag. These look great!
I would use the bag for our many trips to the local library.
~Amy
Schlepping all the gear my 4 littles require–and of course books. Always books!
We shop at our local truck market every Saturday in the spring, summer and fall so I would use my bag to carry the bounty our local people are growing home.
They’re so roomy and green, I’ll probably use them everywhere - the grocery store, to the library, classes, mall etc.
Great find - Teensy Green!
Btw, I’m having GIVEAWAYS on my blogs as well. Hope you’ll drop by.
Thanks,
callmeabookworm at gmail dot com
We have a new baby boy on the way, and I can imagine that we’ll be using this for everything from baby gear to groceries to long lists to help me remember things while I’ve got baby brain!
I’m a bag junkie. I’d use it for the upcoming trip to Disney World and after that it will be my new beach bag!
It would be fabulous catch all for everything a busy Mom has to carry, from diapers, to groceries, to babydolls!
Knitting! I can take it with me anywhere in a safe, sturdy tote like that.
I’d love to try one. I think this would be great for groceries.
I try to leave a tote in my car, so it’s handy when I need it at the library, the grocery store, the mall, the farmers market… so many uses!!!
I’d put everything I’d need for a day trip around the city
Books, Nintendo DS, a little blanket in case the bus has really cold air conditoning
Thanks for the contest ![]()
I’d use mine to tote my kids to and from daycare - and grocery shopping..LOVE THEM!
What wouldn’t I put in this great bag?! I am making a valiant effort to only use re-usable bags for everything from lunches/snacks, everyday toting junk & grocery shopping! These look fabulous!!
We need a new tote for our library books! The one we’ve been using is old and very girlie.. and this would be special for my son to use!
it would be great to bring home our haul from the farmer’s market!
I’d love to use it for a pool bag. With 3 boys to lug around, I must take lots o’ stuff!! sunscreen, sunglasses, snacks, money for the snack bar, etc…
i’m a 31-year-old new mom who is going back to school — i’d probably use it to lug my school stuff around!
groceries.
Let’s see I would use it at for the library, for church, for the grocery store, for vists to grandma, is there anything I can’t use it for?
Those bags look so great - fashionable plus functional equal awesome. I’d definitely use those bags for toting groceries or as a bag for work! Thanks for the opportunity!
I would fill it with sand toys, and take it to the beach. Or fill it up with groceries at the store. There are endless uses!
Groceries! And books. And toys. And diapers. And anything else I might need a great bag for at the moment. ![]()
I would use the bag not just for shopping but taking the things I need to recycle to the bottle bank, the battery bank, the plastic bottle top bank etc and to advertise the need for more bags like these
I use these humongous ikea bags when I go grocery shopping now, and they are too large. When my groceries are put in them they are too heavy. These bags look like they’re the perfect size for groceries.
I would carry stuff back and forth to work.
Thanks for this chance to win one.
I use my cloth bags when shopping. Grocery stores, Drug Stores, and hardware stores. Anything they would put in a plastic bag I would put in my Timberland Eco Tote!
Knitting, which I carry everywhere, would definitely be in there.
The totes look perfect to put all our stuff to go to the beach in. Other than that, it would be a perfect sturdy bag for heavy grocery items!
For groceries and trips to the library, etc!
Would love this for shopping. Thanks for the giveaway.
I can keep this in the trunk of my car. Now, if only I can remember……
I am now working on doing my part to help the environment by bringing my own bags when I shop. This would help!
Cool bags. I am forever hauling library or other books around. This looks like a great bag for hauling the notebooks, books, etc., that I always seem to need with me.
This is my first time ever on teensygreen or even trying to win something. I would use the tote to replace my carry-all I use now. I usually carry one bag with both mine and my babies things when we go out.
I’d like to say I’d put in a book and some knitting for fun, but I’ll probably end up putting a change of clothes and diapers for the kids. Maybe I can sneak in a book, too.
i have been looking for a nice sturdy bag to take with me to the farmers market
what a fantastic idea! I use reusable bags for toting around the accoutrements of children. pencils, paper, snacks, diapers, water…etc.
I’d probably add it to my collection in the trunk of my car - ready to use whenever I’m shopping. Or, to lug my teaching stuff to and from school. Thanks so much!
I would use it for a reusuable grocery bag! thanks!
I would use it as my work bag!
I’d probably use it for grocery and shopping since I am trying to not use plastic bags.
I would love to use my tote for groceries and for fresh fruits and veggies from our local farmers market.
I would either use it as a diaper bag or take it work to carry all the stuff I tote to and from work.
These would be great for taking to the gymn!
What would I put in my bag?
Kids clothes, snacks, toys, a book for me, a pen, cards/envelopes and stamps. Random socks my daughter pulls off in the car, random hair clips who meet the same fate as the socks, CDs, a sandal (there is always a random one lying around), bottle of water, a small pack with a diaper for each little one, with a small pack of baby wipes, and a camera to capture every moment I might be afraid of missing.
See why I would need one of the bags? It would get cleaned out once a week, and then I’d start all over again.
Cool bag! I love totes. I’d use it for grocery shopping, to the gym and whenever I stay over at my in-laws for the weekend! So many uses! Thanks!
since im a student, there are lots of things i can put in tote. my books, notebooks, pens, beauty stuffs and all! hope i’ll win!! pls count me in!
I haven’t stop using plastic bags yet but want to, this would be a perfect way to start ♥
Absolutely for grocerires, to take snacks in for children’s games and activities, extra change of clothes for my potty training toddler, to carry cups for getting glasses of tap water not bottled water, for carrying toys to the beach or Dr. appts. This list could go on and on. Oprah had an awesome show yesterday about challenging families to use only necessities for one week. It showed the families how to use less electricty, use cloth napkins, no paper plates or cups, and learning to carry their own bag lunches and such. It was a great show that you could read up on on Oprah.com, I would imagine!
I would use the bag for some of my personal bussiness products.
Thanks
I’d use it for my library books or for my knitting.
definitely use it fir my groceries
I guess the question is what I would NOT put in the bag!
Not only do we use these for shopping, but, going to my sons track meets, taking things to my friends and daughter and when Papa goes to give Plasma he carries around the Portable DVD player and books. Looks like it would also fit our little Chihuahua!
Trips to the library, beach, grocery store, etc.
Would use the bag for various purposes: carrying baby things, groceries, shopping, gym, work lunch.
I would love to carry this bag to the library (I go several times each week). It would save my poor arms from carrying stacks of books!
Since I live on one of the largest campuses in the US, sturdy bags are always welcome! I’d use mine for the normal stuff-carrying books, binders, and school stuff around campus. However, shopping with plastic bags is not only bad for the environment, it’s also really uncomfortable. When I go shopping I usually have to walk a couple of miles, and carrying plastic bags is not much fun when you’re walking such long distances. I would use the Timberland recycled bag to do all of my shopping with. ![]()
This would be perfect for getting all our fruits and veggies at the local farmer’s market.
I would put a towel and some screen in it and use it as a beach bag!
Aha! The perfect tote to use for trips with the kids to the park and the beach this summer!
We would use them for groceries, pool trips, or car trips. We use bags all the time!
If I don’t use it for grocery, I will use it to carry my notepads around the house. I move a lot with my laptop.
I would use it to hold diapers and groceries and my digital camera!
Most of the grocery stores in Seattle are merging towards the BYOB and our family is accumulating quite a collection of reusable bags for library books, groceries, consumable supply stores, clothing stores, etc. This bag will fit in perfectly with our collection and looks durable enough for just about anything.
I’d most likely use this bag for groceries. I need a tough one for the heavy stuff!
I would use this bag for my trip to the used book store!
I would use this bag for grocery shopping, especially at the neighborhood farmer’s market!
I would use it to carry all my kids stuff, snacks, books etc…
I would definitely use it for my grocery shopping. I just bought 2 cloth bags and could with out a doubt use another.
I would use this to put my laptop and purse in onthe way to work
Well, I’d carry my next purchase of Timberland’s for my hubby of course!!
While he is wearing his Timberlands, we would use the Timb Tote to carry groceries etc. and I would place it on top of the rest of my eco totes!!
I’d add it to the stash of cloth grocery bags I already use…there’s always room for one more!
for groceries, for beach accessories, library books etc
my knitting!
EVERYTHING!! I love tote bags! I use them for grocery shopping all the time, but I also bring a big one to the mall and use it as a purse/shopping bag. I also use them for carrying my laptop/books to class, storing my yarn, and even as a pet carrier for my cat.
I’d take it to the Farmers’ Market and buy lots of fresh produce.
Beach Towel, Sandals & Sunblock
Beach stuff! I’m looking forward to being a beach bum on summer weekends!!
Coppertone sunscreen, sunglasses, a trashy novel, beach blanket, Frisbee, sand castle building toys (for me!!)
Would’nt it be simpler to ask ‘What would’nt you put in a Timberland Tote?’
books and more books
the dollor store where I shop all the time will no longer carry plastic bags so now we have to bring our owne bags, I sure could use these bags. I love the fact that they are water proof.
snacks, cothes,
I would use this bag for my books! I’m always checking out books from the library!
Groceries!
Grocery: Most of my re-usable bags are smaller and I could really use a bigger bag that is very sturdy.
Thank you
great for groceries and just plain stuff
I would definately use this for grocery shopping for produce - thank you for the contest
I think this would change from week to week…books for school, magazines to carry on the plane, dvds to return to the video store, even newspaper recycling. I can’t commit!!
I would use it to haul the $100+ dollars worth of grocery’s when we come back from Trader Joe’s. Also, would come in handy for packing up my 3 year olds goodies as he goes to visit the grandparents.
groceries and clothes
I’m a nurse and I would turn it into my work bag. I really need a new one and these are super cute!
What a great giveaway. Our family is becoming more green concious and I would use this for going grocery shopping. Thanks so much for this giveaway.
my trader joe’s and whole foods groceries!
I carry a bag to work of things to do when there’s downtime. I usually have a few magazines, a book and my lunch inside..lately I’ve just been sticking all of it into plastic grocery bags I have saved in my cupboard but the book tends to rip big holes in it. I could also use it for small trips to the store rather than using plastic bags.
Groceries, new clothes, shoes, baby toys….I have banished plastic shopping bags from my life. I would love to add this one to it.
I would use it for grocery shopping or for a day at the beach.
I would use this tote for grocery shopping, going places and needing to pack an over nighter, basically anything that I can, I am very interested in starting to use cloth bags for the environment. They are more durable and much more useful.
I have started taking my book tote bags to the grocery store so I would be putting groceries in the totebag
I’d use it for the Beach or for the grocery store.
Library books!
I would take this with me when I do my NON-grocery shopping (this bag is too classy to hold macaroni!). It is large enough to hold many other purchases, though.
I would love to carry my magazines for our trips!
Carry my lunch to work in it everyday would be so great.
I would use them for groceries and to recycle magazines by taking them to the local hospital.
I am always trying to find a ‘just right’ reusable tote that is sturdy enough to handle my books, all the stuff I lug around for my small children, and anything my husband may need me to bring to and from whatever he is doing with the USMC.
Groceries and books! I read a lot..
GROCERIES! I walk to the store!
I have two jobs and not much time in between them, so I have a lot of stuff to carry in the morning. This would be awesome to carry everything in one place (instead of the 2 bags I use now)
This bag would be perfect for my husband to carry all the stuff my kids take with them to their grandparents. They are currently using plastic grocery bags for this and I hate the way things end up lost or even thrown away. He hates to carry tote bags because mine are too girly, but this would be perfect for him.
I am trying so hard to be green! Great giveaway
I would take it on the bus with me to the grocery store, drug store, and the library.
Groceries, books, flea market purchases, lots of things.
I could stash lots of stuff in this for when I go to babysit my grandkids! thanks for the giveaway
It could go with me to the grocery store or to the beach.
I would definitely use a bag to go grocery shopping!
So they’ve made bags from billboards?! Sounds crazy but pretty darn awesome at the same time. If they’re as sturdy as they sound, I’d use mine to carry the 100+ books I check out at a time from my local library (I’m an elementary teacher and have an “in” with the children’s librarian!)
I’d use this bag everywhere I go! I think it’s important to set a good example to others that it’s not so hard to remember to use a reuseable bag and that one person can make an impact. I would use this bag with pride! Thanks for the great contest!
Groceries of course!
doggy park trip supplies
trips to the librairy
I’d use this tote and take it to work with me everyday. It would hold my work papers.
I’d use this tote for everything!! It would be great to use instead of my diaper bag, I could use it to haul my groceries, I can use it as a book bag, or I could use it for my everyday needs.
Probably books and magazines….
$240 worth of pudding
Library books and groceries
That would be perfect for our weekend trips to the farmers market!!
I blogged your contest on Prize-A-Tron!
http://www.prizeatron.com
I’d use it to carry my gym clothes and my lunch which never fit in my backpack with all my studying paraphernalia.

I’d use it for groceries and library books
Groceries

My books, cameras, beach towel on a trip.
Mainly groceries, but also for the beach.
If I owned this bag today, I’d be taking it to the Earth Day Festival. I’d use it for library books and shopping trips (groceries, mall, and upcoming summer festivals).
Clearly, shopping, especially at our farmers market. Then, I would use it for trips to hold all the various stuff that everyone wants accessible in the car.
I always stop at garage sales, so I would keep this in my car for my purchases.
I’d use the bag while shopping, instead of taking plastic/paper bags from the store.
i’m going to take this shopping for groceries and leave the “paper or plastic” in the store

I’d put this in my husband’s truck to help remind him to bring resusable bags to the grocery store : )
We use totes for all out shopping needs
Everything including the kitchen sink of course; I’m a woman ![]()
This bag would be great to just keep in the car for shopping, unexpected purchases or taking to the park or beach. Thank you!
We’re often just picking up a few things at the local bodega, so this would come in handy. I always feel guilty getting a plastic bag for those frequent trips!
timberland always seems to be ahead of the rest of the companies. totes sre stylish, useful, washable and just plain common sense
This I would use for those quick trips to the store, carry my purchases home.
I would use it to hold my groceries when I go shopping.
I would definitely use this tote in our canoe. It’s the perfect height and width, sturdy enough to be banged around in a boat all season long. It would carry everything from lunch and a coffee thermos to binoculars and cameras, rain gear to sunscreen and bug repellant.
I’d put my shopping in it.
maybe some books
I’d put groceries and other shopping items in my Timberland billboard tote. I love these!

I’d use it for trips to the library, post office, AND shopping trips ![]()
I would use them for groceries. My boys are really pushing me to go green.
I’d use for my library books. Perfect for taking them back and checking them out. Also could use when I purchase some of my business supplies so I won’t have to have the store give me a plastic bag
My first thought was wine, homemake sourdough, and good cheese. After reading all these posts, the possibilities are endless. I’m going to need more than one!
all the stuff my grandkids need for the pool and or beach!
I would definitely use this for when I go shopping. Any kind of shopping at this point. My daughter’s going through her “new things” phase so I find myself having to dispose of more paper and plastic bags then I’d care to.
shopping trips mostly for groceries
Like you, I would use it for the library, then groceries, then stuff, then more stuff….
