			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The eye-catching creative behind some of these shopping bags is genius. When walking down Nicollet Avenue of downtown Minneapolis, I can say with confidence that I don&#8217;t pay full attention to the brands on the bags of my fellow street goers latest purchase. However, the eye-catching thought put onto the bags below is enough to catch your eye.</p>
<p>While they are designs are catchy, they also beg the question, &#8220;Does the bag creative become distracting from the brand itself, or does it draw in curious eyes long enough to drive brand awareness?&#8221;</p>
<p>I like to think the latter. What do you think?</p>
