Keep Purse with Shopping Bags


Gold Post Medal for All Time! 555 Posts

shopping bagI don't know if you have this problem, but I do. I try to use reusable grocery bags as much as possible, but I forget to bring them into the store! Same with my coupons and sometimes even my shopping list!

The Solution: Now at home, I place my purse directly "into" one of my reusable, cloth grocery bags and add my coupons, list and key ring to a hook on the bag as well. Then I hang this bag by the door. Every time I get home, I immediately place my purse in that hanging bag and the keys on the ring.

Now when I am going shopping, I bring the purse "still" in the bag with me to carry in to the store together. I can store or add additional folded bags in the bottom of that same bag (as well as coupons and shopping list in a little pocket on the front of the bag and bring it "all" into the store with me on shopping day!

Once home and unpacked, I make sure to put them all back into that main bag along with my purse once again and place it back on its designated hook.

What a great idea! I have that same problem and I keep buying more of those shopping bags in the hopes that I might remember each new one, but still forget them. Now I am going to do exactly as you suggested - RIGHT now! Thanks!

Excellent/Clever! How many times have I walked out without my coupons or plastic bags to return to store for recycling! Thank you!

Great idea! I will give that a try. I put some bags in my car ready to go. Only works if you don't forget, so your idea is great as my back up plan. Thanks for the tip.

I always keep reuseable bags in my car, as well as a cooler in the trunk, (in hot weather I take frozen juice bottles with water) and my coupon pouch in the car, so I always have everything I need. No forgetting! Weekends I sort my coupons putting in and deleting & put them back in the car.
