Just getting back to my pc here to check on my thread of yesterday...

WOW! What great response.

I really like the self-checker lane myself too. Something else I really liked about using my bag was the size... compared to a cart or a store hard plastic tote basket. The cart is a lot to push through store ailse when it's crowded (if you are not planning to fill the cart all the way up especially). The hard platic basket is just uncomfortable to grip by hand with weight, or carry in the crook of your arm (heavy to start with too).

The shopping bag works out perfectly in comparison.
