Do you bother with bringing reusable bags or just use the plastics. Personally I do both.

I use the plastics. I should bring reusable ones, but its hard to remember sometimes considering I always have at least one of my kids with me when I grocery shop.

I never remember to bring proper shopping bags when I go to the store so I always end up using plastic carrier bags. I empty them out and use them as bin liners in our bathrooms. If I don't manage to use them all, I scrunch them all up together and put them in the recycling bin outside the store. They don't go to waste.

I have several of the reusable bags and probably should use them, but I don't ever think about taking them with me when I go to the store.

I always save the plastic bags from the store. I always use them for something like small trash cans. :thumbsup:

I would save bags for recyclable materials and trash at home.

on my major shopping trips I use re useable bags. but there are times that I am just picking up 1 or 2 things and don't have extra bags with me so i have the plastic from the store.
as much I try to recycle and not use plastic bags I still need and use them a lot to carry things. :rainbow: :rainbow: :rose: :peace: :wave:

I use both, it depends on what store I am at. Some store require you to buy or bring your own bags.

I use both.  I reuse the plastic bags and what I don't use will go to the Ministry of hope. they are always needing plastic bags there. I usually keep a few in the car so if I should get my shoes muddy when we are out and about I can put them in a bag and slip on a pair of flip flops until I get home. Or put them down on the carpet of the car for my dad and hubby to put their muddy shoes on. That is when they remember too do it.
