paper or plastic?

Answer 1

Cockroaches love to make their homes in the paper bags. Stores usually take back plastic for recycling.

Answer 2

I have the Yahoo bag and a selection of others ... so it's a question of how many of what sort I may wish to additionally acquire.

We get 2 dozen or so plastic each month and tote trash to the dumpster nigh-daily, if there is any garbage the disposal can't take (i.e. popcorn hulls), it goes O U T promptly and tied shut to discourage four-legged and six-legged scavengers.

I find paper bags useful for *lining* the cloth bags. When I carry trade-in paperbacks or VHS tapes, I don't worry about handles tearing half-down the stairway or in the middle of a parking lot. At the destination, I remove the cloth layer, leaving the full bag without immediate un-packing.

Answer 3

Paper if just a few bags, plastic if buying a lot

Answer 4

Depends if the hubby is home to help unload if not then plastic if he is than paper.

Answer 5

neither- I use cloth bags for shopping. The only time I use paper is the couple of weeks before school starts to get bags for book covers.

Answer 6

Hemp, sisal, canvas. My own shopping bag like my mother used to have, or a string bag which scrunches up small to keep in a pocket.

Answer 7

Neither !! For the last two months, I've been using my Yahoo! Canvas shopping bag !!
