Speaking of forgetful, don't forget to run those bags through the wash every now and then.

Those things will harbor some nasty bacteria if you let them.

Huh I actually never considered that, thanks! I'll chuck it in the machine next time I wash my dog's harness

when you inevitably accrue a metric fuck-ton of these please remember that a lot of charity shops (at least the ones in the UK) are grateful for them

When I'm done unloading at home, I hang them on the doorknob so I remember them next time I leave.

I’ve never really had that problem, because I almost always carry a large-ish backpack with a cotton bag folded inside, but it would be neat if stores had a box near the checkout where you could leave your extra bags for other clients to use for free.

One of the libraries I go to does something like that, they keep some bags near the front desk and give them to users who need something to carry their books. I’ve given them two bags I had no use for. And I know a bulk food store where you can leave empty containers for other clients to use.

I leave mine in the trunk and have only walked into the store without them twice. Not forgetting them before walking into the store and putting them back into the trunk after unloading them is the hardest part.

Some reusable bags are just clunky. The ideal ones are those you can fold to the point you fit it on your purse or pocket.

36? Those are rookie numbers 😅

I just use an old cardboard box.

JUST GET THE SINGLE USE BAGS.

They are much better for the environment. You can even reuse them. The reusable ones use much more plastic hence are much worse if you don't regularly reuse them.

Cloth bags are even worse. But very nice.

I'm in this picture and I don't like it

What have you done, Mark

[–] limonade@jlai.lu 2 points 3 days ago

I do like to collect them but I never need a fifth examplar of that bad quality overpriced one they are offering...

[–] oyzmo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Always fold mine and put them next to my shoes. Then next time I leave the house, I put the bags in my car 🙂

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago

Or you wear the bags on your feet and put the shoes in the car.
