I have heard many people say that they have bags for grocery shopping but they always forget them. Here is my system for remembering my bags…
I keep my bags by the front door.
When I go out to my car I see my bags and bring them to the car. I always keep them behind my seat.
If you need the room behind your seat and need to put your bags in the trunk, you can make a pretty sign and post it on your dashboard to remind you that your ‘bags are in the trunk’. My problem is that if I didn’t see them I might forget!
I go shopping, bring them home and put everything away.
When all groceries are away I put my bags back by the front door.
If you need to make signs to remember your bags do it! Make yourself a system and figure out how you can sustain that system. This is a serious issue. This is a small step we can take to help plastic bags be a thing of the past.

Reusable Produce Bags
I always bring my own reusable bags to the grocery store. Although that makes me feel good, I was still using those long thin plastic bags from the store for my produce. I knew I needed a solution! I found these great netted bags on amazon for a great price. You can reuse them over and over and even wash them. Now I go shopping and come home with no extra “baggage.” Love it!
Grocery Net Bags
This is another step we can take to help our environment. I also love feeling more self sufficient…of course someday I would like my own garden and not even go to the store:}
