    This one was pretty simple.  The hardest part is remembering to bring your reusable bags with you to the store!  I may just start keeping them in my trunk so I'm never without!

      I agree.  This was pretty simple.  What I do is put my reusable bags in my car.  After I am done, I put them back in my car for the next shopping trip.
