Insulated shopping bags

I have a few insulated bags like that which I actually received at no cost from a store when they were celebrating an anniversary or something. They do come in handy. I mostly use the thin less than cloth bags that the Chinese food restaurant puts your paper bag of food into. They do fine for light things but for tins I always use a thick canvas cloth bag so that the weight doesn't tear the cloth or put extra strain on the handles. I do not miss, and am thankful that we no longer have to mess with those awful plastic bags. I think that its been well over a decade since I got caught without a bag. And it was my own fault, I went to pick up a couple of items that I could easily carry, but bought more than that. Now we have a thin bag neatly folded on the back of each of the front seats in the car, just in case.....

We have a few insulated bags ….we mainly use them when we are at the caravan. I always have a foldaway bag in my handbag ….you never know when you are going to need a bag. We keep a supply in the car too….

That is always my problem. Remembering to take the bags

I take my own bags for shopping all the time nowadays. They are a mixture of cotton and synthetic mostly and washable. I like to use recyclable if available

I like to use cloth totes for shopping, too. I don't have any insulated ones, but my husband does, and I have borrowed his before. That's a very cheery design!

We have that kind of shopping bag too. I usually bring an eco bag with me. They’re convenient and, more importantly, environmentally friendly. Even in small ways like that, I try to reduce my plastic consumption. I’m just not a fan of paper bags, those brown ones that aren’t sturdy. It’s the worst when they tear and everything you’re carrying ends up falling out.

Plastic bags are still used here, but more and you’ll see people with their own shopping bags. I order groceries to be delivered, and they always come in plastic bags. However, I always reuse them. Even if I didn’t, there is a place to hand off your recyclables very easily. You don’t even half to talk to anyone. They take plastic, cardboard, and electronics.

Looks sericeable..

We also use those bags, plastic bags were outlawed years ago. I have a few and also those insulated where you put cold packs for the frozen food.

We have shopping bags like that, too, but we still get free plastic bags at Walmart and King Food Saver. The shopping bags like you're showing cost $5 each and can be reused over and over again.

I should put some bags in my back seat.

Plastic bags are not allowed here, especially when shopping at the grocery store. So, I always carry eco-friendly bags with me whenever I go out. I also believe in making a positive impact on the environment, even in small ways.

When I shopped inside the store I took bags, but ever since COVID we've been picking our groceries up curbside and they put them in plastic bags.
