Years ago in Europe, patrons used mesh bags, usually made of thick plastic bands, that they regularly carried in their pockets or purses on shopping days. These mesh sacks expanded to accommodate just about any day's grocery or other item shopping. Their capacity was amazing actually. After the bag was unpacked, the bag would simply collapse into a very small net. These bags were used over and over, for years on end. Why are we always asking ourselves about which type of disposable convenience we prefer, and not asking ourselves why we don't carry more permanent conveniences, like mesh (net) bags?
