They hold probably the volume of at least 4 small grocery bags. Which means one trip from the car to the front door with three or four bags in hand, rather than 3-4 trips back and forth. It's awesome.
The only thing is I like to reuse those plastic sacks for the small trash cans around my place...so whenever I'm in SA and do some shopping, I keep those pesky plastic bags handy  |
This won't matter if the state legislature passes legislation outlawing city-level ordinance bag restrictions.
