Here in WA state most stores give 3 options :
--- bring your own reusable bags. Quite a few shoppers (environmentalists) do. Stores save a lot of money when people do this. That is why they sell them so cheap.
--- Get your stuff packed in single use plastic bags: Trader Joes does NOT have it.
--- Get your stuff packed in paper bags .
Back to subject:
I have been using these bags for a couple of year. They are very practical. At the end of season empty and fold them, ... easy. They also work just like the so-called "Smart Bags", which is nothing more than breathing. Roots seem to like more oxygen.

In Austin they offer paper bags thicker plastic bags and buy a reusable bag.
In the article it said people just went up the road to another town a mile or two away to shop.
This caused some stores to lose 60 to 70 thousand a week in sales.
Were I live they offer cheap reusable bags and more expensive reusable bags.
We dont have a plastic bag ban.
Like imp I have a house full of them but forget to use them.
Some look like they would make good containers.
One I used as a big purse to carry on the plane.
