I've completely stopped using store bags-- always carry canvas bags with me, for everything from books to groceries to clothing the auto parts store. However, this means that I can longer use the store plastic bags for garbage, forcing me to buy garbage bags.<br> <br> Or does it? Not using a bag is too nasty, but should I be using large paper bags, on the theory that paper will decompose? Or would I just be killing trees? Plus, where do I find them (the stores only have those mega lawn bags in paper) Do I just go back to using paper bags at the grocery store? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.115213 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 05:35:25 -0800 plasticbags recycling trash trashbags nax http://ask.metafilter.com/88272/What%2Dcan%2DI%2Ddo%2Dwith%2Dmy%2Dhundreds%2Dof%2Dgrocery%2Dbags What are some good uses for plastic grocery bags? We've got a ton of plastic bags at our house that just sit in the cupboard waiting to be used as lunch bags or trash can liners, but we're getting them faster than we use them.<br> <br> I was wondering if anybody had some useful/creative things that they can be used for around the house, other than lunches or trash bags. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.88272 Tue, 08 Apr 2008 21:12:06 -0800 trashbags bigtalldave101
