Reusable shopping bags

Binxy

But a specific type, and I've tried umpteen searches on Google and got nowhere :mad:

I've seen people with bags they own, neatly placed in a supermarket trolley. They then put their shopping in it, take it to the till to run through, and then put it all back in these bags to take to the car.

They seem to be nylon, quite tough, with decent handles and a good size capacity too.

I cannot find anything like them! Can anyone help? I really want to get in the habit of having my own bags so as not to get any more plastic ones that take 10 years plus to rot in landfill.

Morrisons sell "trolley bags," I don't know if that's what you mean or not, but they're 99p and in the doncaster store they are found at the end of each till, I presume it's the same in different stores? They look pretty big too, try them out

Lakeland do ones called supermarket savers. You can get 2 normal ones for £11.95 or 2 insulated ones for £12.95. Or a pack with one of each for £11.95

Binxy you snatched the words from my mouth! How many times I have rushed around London (I do it for work anyway) looking for something I saw or heard of, only to be told I could get it at the local ironmonger/ supermarket/etc.!

Now, whenever I have a little time to spare, I make a point to pay careful attention to the various aisles and see what is sold, and note down anything I expect I might need in the future - at least I shall know where to get it, and if they don't have it they can always tell me where I can find it.

Saves time and hassle in the long run.

We use the large blue nylon type shopping bags from Ikea - they are really strong and great for laundry too ! Not sure how much they were but we bought 6 so I can't imagine they were very expensive.

The Ikea one were approx £1 each. I bought 2 last time I was in Ikea Glasgow.
