    All you English going on about reusable bags & being charged for flimsy plastic ones!

    I have a solution for the lot of you - Shaw's woven bags at just 25p each! They are BRILLIANT. The large ones have a woven handle that will slip over your shoulder. I bought a dozen for £3 so I've always got some in the car.

    If you have a Shaw the Drapers shop nearby go get yourselves some. If you don't then they are available online now. You won't regret buying a LOAD as friends will envy you these humongous bags. You'll use them for extra storage, to cart laundry up & downstairs etc. etc.

    Thank you!

    Please can someone remind me to order some when I come back from my hols? :)

    Really?


    admittedly, it does say "appears" :cool:

    It should be a bit more specific than that :rotfl:

    Bag Re-use, not bag purchase ;)

    I wonder if a BFL would appear on an APG, and if so would it be N/A or would it give a 0.5p voucher ?

    I will BUT aren't you from around here? There is a Shaws in Cwmbran, Newport a few in Cardiff, Bristol etc. etc. You could just pop in & get some. Their towels also used to be the best you could buy & probably the cheapest too, esp. their egyptian cotton. Haven't bought any in a while as they last forever & still look/feel like new. I know Shaws are also in the West county - google them, they may be very near you. Worth looking at their bedding & curtains too - one of those old shops that are great value for money and also you get things in there that last & last & last.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)
