If that’s true, then take a bow. You’re exceptional.

I’d guess most households make around 100 purchases of stuff a year, and since many are impromptu and unplanned, even if you remember to bring a reusable bag 80-90 per cent of the time, you’re still going to wind up accumulating 15-20 of them over a year.

I’m confident if I went to the homes of the people who signed off on the policy, I’d find a bag of bags hanging on a foyer hook or stuffed in a shelf, like the rest of us have.

I’ve mastered the dark art of re-usable bags by having them in my vehicle and knowing how to carry things in my hands.
