You could get one of those trash cans that meant to be lined with plastic grocery bags, Jesse. My parents have one but they have gotten too good at remembering to bring reusable bags shopping and are now running into a plastic bag shortage. So it's a bit of a mixed bag. So to speak.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's fucking hysterical! I mean, I like those bags, but no way in hell would I ever pay that much money for a bag for nice things, much less my nasty groceries.
Baggu has certainly gone upscale since I last shopped there. There used to be, like, ten nylon choices.

I have re-usable shopping bags. . . I usually forget to bring them to the grocery store.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I love my Chico bags. They pack up tiny so I keep then in various bags, and they can hold 25 lbs. [link] also check reuseit.com for lots of options - [link]

I love my Baggu bags. I'm not sure what I did with the black one, though. I used to have the Rasta colours overlapping with the Jamaican colours. Now I just have Rasta. And when I got my sister re-usable produce bags for Christmas I got myself a set too.
I think maybe I should keep one or two separate for non-grocery use, though. Currently the only stores I carry them into are supermarkets and pharmacies, pretty much.

I try to keep a couple of Chico bags in my purse at all times. They come in handy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Between Gary and me, we have accumulated a number of tote bags that we use for groceries and such. (Gary gets free bags at trade shows, and I get some at the mystery convention I attend every year)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We have an absurd number of reusable bags at this point, then again we use them for more than just grocery shopping.
And even so, I sometimes forget them or fail to have them in the car when I need them.

Dear annoying acquaintance who I am pretty sure will never be a friend: get over your doorbell neurosis, already. Yes, I was home yesterday. No, I did not answer the door. That is because you knocked rather than ring the doorbell. Since I was upstairs, I did not hear you. I don't care if your mother told you that ringing doorbells was rude. I have a doorbell so that I know when someone wants me to answer the fracking door! I told you I can't hear a knock if I'm not right in the living room. Use the doorbell or don't bother stopping by - preferably the latter.
