The bags I bought eight years ago are showing no signs of giving up.

I also find it quicker and easier to transfer shopping in two or three
decent bags than a dozen flimsy ones, and stuff doesn't escape in the boot.


Reusable bags are fine if you shop by car. They are even ok if you
deliberately set out to walk to the shops. But if you shop on the way
home etc you tend to find yourself in a shop without a bag.

I would tend to have some sort of bag anyway though (rucksack probably).

If not people will either stump up the 5p, or adjust their behaviour and
tend to have a bag stuffed somewhere
