My biggest barrier is forgetting to bring them to the store. I have purchased several bags but I forget to take them with me.

I agree, remembering to take those along, they are in my car, but I forget every time! Also different stores have different bags, wouldn't it be nice if we could design our own and have those for every store instead of grabbing the wrong bag for the wrong store?

I think my biggest hinderance to using the reuseable bags is leaving them behind when I leave to the grocery store. I have one from Target that has a hard bottom and I absolutely love it because it folds up to the size of a CD case so it can be really portable!

I always forget the bags when I go to the store. I just need to keep some in the car that way I'll always have some.

I never have my reusable bags with me. Once they come into the house, they don't leave.

Another reason is that, I don't know how many bags to take with me to the store. I feel like I always need multiple bags, but I don't want to go into the store with a pile of reusable bags. I don't mind bringing in my bags to places like Aldi, because if I bring in a whole pile, its the norm.

I think I would be more motivated to bring the bags, if I got a coupon in exchange for the bag. Or, if there was a 5cent discount.

Or, if you got points for every time you used a reusable bag. Then after so many points, you could exchange them for an extra penny item, or for an extra 3cent off coupon for gas.

I really love the idea of using the reusable bags - but I leave my at home ALL THE TIME. I just need to get better on that - I think one solution for me is that after I am done unloading my groceries to take them and put them with my coupon binders, which I carry in a tote bag of its own - I never forget those! On another note, I would personally love it if stores even gave a .05 or .10 cent discount per reusable tote or bag. I think that would be cool. Brandie Valenzuela´s last blog post..Cheese Bread

It would be a lot better for me if I was offered an incentive. I use the plastic bags I get anyway, so unless they were going to give me a discount, I would be more likely not to carry in my own bags.

My biggest challenge really is just remembering to bring them in or to bring enough it. I even keep them in the Car but forget to grab them out. I am getting better though

My biggest barrier to using reusable shopping totes is that I use the plastic bags to pick up dog poo when we go on our walks.

I'm on oxygen so it's a bit cubersome with the oxgen tank and my purse plus the bags so I started putting my tank in the bag and away I go.

I have a great basket I keep in the car with my reusable bags, but my biggest barrier is remembering to bring them into the store! I agree with another shopper that they are impossible to use at the U-scan. Also agree that if Kroger offered an incentive (or a disincentive in terms of charging for the plastic ones) then I would be more likely to go back out to the car to get them!

I love reusable bags and I take them with me everywhere. I can't think of anything negative about them. They're very sturdy and easy to carry. I love that many stores give you a small credit for using them.

My biggest barrier is when my hubby goes shopping for me. He usually forgets the reusable shopping bags!
