Darlene hangs them on a table and uses it as a mini-trash bag. I'm fairly certain that we probably have at least 100 of them. I miss the large brown grocery bags, 2 or 3 bags and you were all set for the week now you have to carry 15 or 20 bags into the house. What a nuisance. They don't even say paper or plastic anymore. If ever given that option again I am going to say 'paper' just to get their reaction. They probably wouldn't know what to do 'cause odds are there are no paper bags at bagging area.
