    Once I started using reusable bags, particularly at the grocery store, I discovered how much better reusable bags are on a functional level.  They hold more groceries and hold them better.  Now I hate using plastic one-time use bags!  It also made it easier to remember to take my bags in the store.  
    If you're not already using reusable bags - try it - you'll like it!
