Paper or Plastic? Grocery Bags......

Contributor: chicmichiw chicmichiw
I try really hard not to get any kind of plastic bag -- I try to take in the reuseable ones or if I can carry the items, I'll carry them.

I like paper! not only do I feel better about it, but I can uses them as trash bags, book covers, drop cloths, and as parts of my art.

I always get plastic bags, but I also always reuse/repurpose them. I mostly use them contain the waste I scoop out of my cat's litter box.

I have some reusable shopping bags, but they usually get used as totes for carrying around other things.

We always get plastic and save some for re-use for various things. The rest we return to the store who recycles them.

I never remember to bring my cloth ones... Plus I reuse the plastic ones for my lunch or trash can liners....

Reusable bags! If I forget them (for instance, with an unplanned shopping trip), I use plastic. I always reuse those for other things around the house though.

I use them all. I reuse my paper bags to hold my recycling, and the plastic bags become my trash bags. When I have enough of these I usually use my canvas bag for shopping.

Reusable or none if at all possible (I'm getting better with remembering)
