Now, if you haven’t already, go find your cloth bags and put them in your car, on the passenger seat next to you, so that you’ll remember to use them the next time you shop. If you don’t understand the reasons why you should cut back on your use of plastic bags, or you need to know where to buy some, please click here. [...]

It is important for people to begin to use re-usable bags for their groceries. As you pointed out there are many sites that a person can buy a bag. I promote and share my ideas to help crafters crochet or knit bags from recycled plastic bags. If anyone is looking for a tutorial on how to make your own bag, I’d be happy to help. All my patterns are available free for personal use.
