Bean Boat and Tote bags (medium) are great for groceries, in particular. Plus, I think they'll last forever! L.L. Bean Boat and Tote bags (medium) are great for groceries, in particular.

About 6 months ago, I was at my local grocer, and they had a special 5/$2. I bought 10. I now use them everywhere. I get odd looks when I pull them out at Target, but they are much sturdier(no more broken bags and groceries running all over the place) and I feel better that I'm not using tons and tons of plastic bags every time I go to one of these places. If I absolutely must use plastic bags, I insist that as many things go into one bag as possible. No more one or two items per bag as most cashiers like to do. :) Thanks for getting the word out! Now if only my city would start offering recycling pickup with the garbage! It's such a pain running to the recycling plant!
