    Hey City,

    Quick poll and hopefully start getting the word out there more....

    How many of you use the canvas bags for your shopping needs? You buy them for 1$ a piece and bring them in with you when you go shopping. Being canvas they are stronger and hold more, and no worries about collecting 1,000 plastic bags.

    I think they are swell.

    So do you use them? would you like to?

    Yes, its a little thing that we learned back in grade one, part of the three R's, Reuse. And it will help this wonderful planet earth stay as beautiful as it is.

    I agree, people are too hung up on recycle- they forget to first reduce all waste, then reuse all waste you can, then recycle everything else you cannot use or eliminate yourself.

    I tried bringing in a canvas bag to my local grocery store and they wouldnt let me bring it in because they thought I was planning on stealing stuff

    Thats fucked up. If you wanna steal something can't you just shove it in your pockets? Why do you need a canvas bag.

    A lot of cashiers are confused when I bring in my own bags. Especially wal-mart.

    I do most of my shopping by bicycle (including in the -45 degree winter) and canvas bags are the only way to get my shit home without the bags breaking.
