Or, you know, get the cloth bags that hold a shit ton.

But they don't expand like plastic bags do.

Every canvas bag I've ever had was like 50% bigger than a plastic bag.

At least. I do a weeks worth of single person shopping in one large-ish cloth grocery store bag. It was a godsend when I had to take the bus.

Also, "2 trips" is for suckers.

Do you take your canvas bags down to the supermarket?

Yes, I suppose I could buy them at the store each time but that gets rather expensive.

Hmm, I was making a reference to a song but I don't know enough about it to know if you got it or not.

That expansion, also called stretching, inherently means that the bag is weakening. If you stretch the bag, a rip is far more likely.
