I keep three baggu reusable bags in my diaper bag or purse at all times. They fold up so small and can hold up to 50 pounds. They are perfect for random errands, clothes shopping, or target.

I have some sturdier bags specifically for grocery shopping. I try to take them out to my car as soon as possible after using them and then they are there for next week.

We have some in the trunk of each car. After shopping they get folded back up and left at the front door so somebody (let's be honest, me 100% of the time) takes them back to the trunk. I also made it a rule that if I forget them in the car I have to go back out for them. Having to stash my cart and run outside a few times was enough to help me always remember.

When we lived in Austin they banned plastic grocery bags, so we had to get our act together quickly! We just stored them in our trunk so they were always there when needed. We now live in Connecticut and have gotten terribly lax...

I've been using reusable bags for more than 10 years. I keep one bag in my handbag at all times. It folds up super small but can carry quite a lot. I keep two bags in the stroller basket. If we had a car, I would keep multiple bags there. Where I live, the only free bags are produce bags so you have to either buy shopping bags at the checkout or bring your own.

I have a stash in my car, and they get used about 80% of the time. Once done, I put them on the front doorknob so I grab them next time I leave the house.

I keep my bags in the front hall closet, I have to pass it to get to the garage from the kitchen, which is where I do my grocery list. I should keep 2 of them in the car, but I have trained myself to get them from the hall closet, even my son knows where they are.

The most important thing for me is the bag itself, I like ones that have a certain shaped bottom, so I keep those around ( I got them when I lived abroad).

I pretty much store them in the car in the trunk. All of them. When I empty them, I place them near the door and put them back in my car in the morning. So I always have more than enough to grocery shop.

I do always forget that I have them so I usually have to go back out to the car to get them.

Oh, I have the compact ones that roll up easily and can be put in my purse. Though, I recently stopped carrying my large purse so I don't always have one with me.
