Do you use reusable grocery bags? Do you reuse your disposable grocery bags?
What kind of reusable bags do you use? How do you reuse your disposable bags? I shop at Aldi and usually reuse my bags instead of buying more. I have reused them for trash can liners as well. I often use my yarn out of the grocery bag I brought it home in. How else can I use them?

I have reusable bags, and I had been reusing disposable bags as well. Here in Vermont, the state has banned plastic bags, so the disposable variety are slowly becoming more and more rare to come across. Those bags were great for stuffing in a pocket during dog walks in case of surprises. I wouldn't feel comfortable picking a dog-end with a burlap tote bag. ...but I am perfectly fine using those for groceries- they're strong and light and conveniently sized.

Linda Joy Do you have a big dog? My dog's poo was small enough a sandwich bag would do for the do-do. But I haven't had a dog in a couple of decades and we were allowed to use it as the natural fertilizer it is back then. I like to keep a spare bag rolled up just in case. And when traveling. I always end up coming back with more than I left with. -
bostjan the adequate 🥉 I have two dogs, one is a beagle-anatolan shepherd mix and the other is some kind of hound mix. The hound is maybe 2.5x the size of the beagle mix, but their poo is about the same. -
Linda Joy What do they use in Vermont to pack your groceries?

bostjan the adequate 🥉 Whatever you bring with you to pack them in. If you don't bring anything, you have to purchase a tote bag or else you just carry your items without a bag.

I mostly use reusable cloth bags. Sometimes I pay for the plastic bags because I scoop the litter box into them.

Any plastic bags we get are reused to line our waste baskets.

I don't gift wrap my trash either. I just rinse the waste basket when it needs it. But I reuse them all the time.

No, and here's why: I get 5% discount at Walmart if I order pickup. Pickup bags things before you get there (in plastic Walmart bags).

Yup, I use reusable bags. The local Kroger store gives extra "fuel points" which translates to discounted gas price. When I get the other bags. I save them until there is a bunch, and I take them into that same store where they have a recycle barrel for those single use bags. 11/3/22
