I have been very good about remembering my reusable shopping bags lately and plastic bags hardly ever make their way into our house. I was still collecting the occasonal plastic produce bag though, so I ordered these reusable produce bags from ecobags.
They are super light so they don't affect the total weight of your produce. I used to only have to remember my shopping list when I went to the grocery store. I am accumilating more and more things I have take with me!
How did the grocery store react to these? I have been wondering about how to avoid the plastic produce bags. Somethings I just leave loose in the cart. But somethings you really do need a bag of some sort...
ReplyDeletePerfect - I've been wondering how to avoid the produce bags. Did they go down well at Weggies?
ReplyDeleteEtsy seller remarket makes and sells these and they are fabulous. I have never had a problem using them at my local grocery store, a Kroger.

don't ya need a few bags to reuse for oscar poo? we have cut back on the bags that come in, but i like produce bags for walking the dog...
ReplyDeleteI want to get away from the pastic grocery bags at the store, but I use them for my trash (they're basically free and just the right size). So, I'm curious, what do you use to throw away your garbage if not a plastic grocery bag?
ReplyDeletewhat do you do with the stickers from the scale then? I love this idea though!
ReplyDeleteThe cashier at Wegmans didn't even blink when I used these bags. No problem at all. The stickers go right on the bag and peel off later.
ReplyDeleteWe don't use regular plastic bags for Oscar poo anymore. We use biodegradable bags. We are also transitioning to biodegradable bags for garbage.
ohhh... I bet I could make these myself... but what a great idea!

Now when we go grocery shopping it's like an event to get everything there, I even have a coupon binder now.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what to do about the produce bags. I like these, good idea!
