   It just seems like a very strange move for a bisiness to ditch     
   paper, indeed.   
      
   Recently, I've ordered my first ever hundreds of dollars worth     
   of grocery bags that feature twine-like handles.  I hate the     
   expense, but some customers appreciate it.  The bags are quite     
   plain but they average 25cents per.   
      
   The reusables (fabric-like) are even more expensive, but I     
   don't see people reusing them much in general. They're probaly     
   accumulating in people's homes or cars until they get too many     
   to bother with and then chuck them in the garbage/landfill.   
      
   I don't see too many people bringing along a spare bag of any     
   kind for their non-grocery shopping - especially guys.   
      
   For men, a side pocket for a folded bag built into a baseball     
   cap might encourage having a bag along at most times.  Or,     
   bring back the fanny pack for having essentials along.
