We have a stash of heavier duty shopping bags and just bring those every week for the shopping, it's just a change of habit really. If you forget, some of the smaller supermarkets keep empty boxes sometimes and offer those for free

…I have a bag in a bag …one of those fold up ones that folds up to nothing and it’s so small that it fits into a really small crossbody bag, which is what I tend to take out mostly…and then when you open it up, it’s like a magic bag and you can fit probably provisions for a month in there…
