Recently, I've ordered my first ever hundreds of dollars worth of grocery bags that feature twine-like handles. I hate the expense, but some customers appreciate it. The bags are quite plain but they average 25cents per. The reusables (fabric-like) are even more expensive, but I don't see people reusing them much in general. They're probaly accumulating in people's homes or cars until they get too many to bother with and then chuck them in the garbage/landfill. I don't see too many people bringing along a spare bag of any kind for their non-grocery shopping - especially guys. For men, a side pocket for a folded bag built into a baseball cap might encourage having a bag along at most times. Or, bring back the fanny pack for having essentials along. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.57 * Origin: Age Doesn't Matter Unless You're a Cheese (1:396/45.29) SEEN-BY: 15/0 105/81 106/201 124/5014 5016 129/305 130/330 153/7715 SEEN-BY: 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 113 275 307 317 426 428 SEEN-BY: 229/470 664 700 280/464 282/1038 291/111 292/854 317/3 320/219 SEEN-BY: 322/757 387/25 396/45 460/58 712/848 2320/105 5020/400 5075/35 PATH: 396/45 229/426 |
