Huh? Why? I never use plastic or paper bags. I just take a backpack or
a set of bike panniers (or in extremis both) to the store. Much easier
and comfier to carry, too, and they get used hundreds or thousands of
times. Disposable bags are just plain evil, nasty and
stupid...
And great for the evil nastines that you get cleaning the cat's litter
box. I've got a bucket that just the right size for holding the plastic
grocery bags open for dumping the shit in. Tie it up and done...
