    Always keep the bags in your car. 4 months ago

    Every time I use them, I put my reusable bags by the door so whenever I go back to my car I won’t forget to put them back. This way every time I go to the store I already have the bags with me, even if I didn’t plan on shopping in the first place. I also have some very pretty ones that I take into higher-end stores and the girls at the counter always love them and ask where I got them! Getting more personal bags makes it fun to use them.

    Here is a picture of my favorite bag. It has very pretty orchids on it and is just fabulous.



    I have the bags 6 months ago

    I’ve only used them a few times. I carry them in my car, but it’s time to carry them into the store!



    Few at a time 8 months ago

    I went grocery shopping today at Kroger and bought two. I am going to buy 2 or 3 every two weeks (I make one big trip every two weeks. until I have enough. I emailed Target, Walmart and Kroger and made sure that I could use ANY bag at their stores – not just their specific bag. All have replied that they accept any reusable bag. :)

    Bought a set of 5 of these on Amazon. Really stoked, I’ve been waiting to get them for a while. Plan to keep one in my bag, some in my car, and give on to the boy.

    Well 9 months ago

    Sainsburies have taken their bags off display and you have to ask for one now so that should help me remember them.

    They're only 99 cents... 9 months ago

    I should probably just start picking up one new bag each time I go to the store until I feel like I have enough.

    I now have two bags... 10 months ago

    I received a coupon in the mail for a free bag from Giant – which is great – but I was stunned when I saw the check out guy actually putting my new reusable bag inside a plastic bag!
