    I bought a couple of Crumpler Light Delight Shopper bags in anticipation of the bag charges coming in.

    I am pretty pleased as the are quite tough and capacious but can be folded up very small.

    We get our big shopping via home delivery – neatly side-stepping the bag issue as well as the “dragging two bored kids around a supermarket for hours” issue.

    For our local shopping we use various cloth bags like the one above or this:

    Oh we do re full on righteous reusable jute bags, which originally came from Unicorn in the People’s Republic of Chorlton.

    (Or, for bigger shops, some ultra durable nylon bags from Carrefour in Grasse.)

    Fwiw to the Englanders, home delivery does not make you exempt for bag charges. Especially if you are using one of the “big ones”.

    Indeed. Ocado will be charging us 5p per bag, but refunding us the 5p each time we hand one back.

    Be better i reckon, if they gave you 5p off per bag you reused. Although I have noticed we have dramatically cut the number of bags we bring home. So the current policy is working (At least in our house).

    Did you read the bit that said: “Most supermarkets are offering a “bagless” delivery service..” ?

    ASDA give us a bagless option. Stuff arrives in crates as normal which you take in, unpack and give back to the driver.

    Woah, that’s nearly identical to my climbing bag (I think mine’s a “hot ice” or some such piffle). Never really stopped to consider it ‘vintage’ but it must be 20 years old onw.

    Mine is 1994 vintage, having been a custom made warranty job for previous three Karrimor bags. I just caught the crap years… But this one is double sewn and soooo comfy. And purple. 8)

    With picture skillz such as those, it’s, it’s, almost as if Jamie heself is here.

    He’d be proud of you!

    I’ve a couple of those fold-flat bags they use to have at the check outs a few hundred years ago. Cost 50p at the time, IIRC. Somehow they’ve survived all these years and so are now back in active service.

    Similar to this:

    Nope. That is an actual bag. You can buy it too if you want.
