Do you collect plastic bags? I do and I find them very useful. I always fold them neatly after taking out the grocery items, something I learned from an American colleague. I use them when collecting trash. Most of the time as cushions when air-freighting items to Manila.
Oftentimes, we notice that most shoppers prefer to use many plastic bags as possible when packing away groceries at supermarket checkout counters. On the other hand, there are a few shoppers who place larger items in a few plastic bags and put smaller items in their handbags or pockets. It is outrageous and not wise to collect and just throw them away. A lady shopper made a very good point in saying most shoppers end up throwing their accumulated plastic bags in the trash. We can find them blowing across open fields, streets, highways, canals, branches of trees, on beaches and in the water. We can find them everywhere. Plastic bags are now associated with many environmental risk factors; air pollution and health dangers to humans and other living beings.

I collect plastic bags, too, and you are right, they are very useful in many ways.
Naku ha, si Joepot kung manghingi ng plastic bags sa Farm 9, superrrr... kaibigan 'nya kasi ang mga kaheros. But he is using the plastic bags wisely. Kadalasan ginagawa niyang basura bags.
I have collected many plastic bags. I can spare them to you, if you want!
@ MonMon,
They are very useful!
Not only wise, but frugal, too!
@ HouseGuest
Please visit as often as possible.
If you are willing to part with your plastic collections, why not!
Gazzaz plastic bags are very expensive looking, like their perfume items.
And besides plastic bags that litter our area, marami rin plastic na tao na nagkalat, o di ba?
