A simple rubber glove used to wash dishes does the trick. Put it on and wipe down your furniture. I find it works better than a vacuum, uses nothing but elbow grease (excepting the purchase of the rubber glove but that's going to last years), and gets all the little hairs that tend to stick in the material.

I've been looking at many different patterns for reusable grocery bags and I must admit my favourite by far is the U-handbag link posted in your article.

I've made this for myself and now my mother, and now my friends want it too. It can be sized up or down, but the current pattern size is perfect for market days. The padded handles are a must. I also add a pocket on the inside for whatever I might want to put in there.

Next large zucchini I get, this is what I'm making:
