ReUsable Bags

January 21, 2009 By Emily McClements
Thank you for supporting this site with purchases made through links in this post.

I love to use re-usable grocery bags at the store. I have a few like this that I bought from Meijer for $1 each that are pretty nice, but getting a little flimsy as they get more and more use. Also, Jer got me 2 ND Credit Union ones from a business expo that are really, really nice. They are alot like the Meijer ones, but made out of stronger material and are more sturdy. One store in our area, Martin’s Supermarket, even gives a $.05 discount for each re-usable bag that you use. Not much, but every little bit adds up.
My favorite thing about re-usable grocery bags is that they actually hold a lot more than the plastic bags do, more like the amount that paper bags can hold, and the handles make them easy to carry multiple bags at one time, which means less trips to and from the car to get all the groceries inside. I have 5 bags that I use regularly and can easily fit my cart load full of groceries into those 5 bags.
