Do you ask for them back again? My problem with gift bags is that unless I'm getting them back I'm using far more resources to make the bag than using paper. Hopefully the recipient is either reusing it or returning it.

THAT is such a great idea! I have made a concerted effort to stop using so many plastic bags. At home we use, well, plastic containers, instead of plastic bags. But when I go grocery shopping it's difficult not to sure their plastic bags. Thanks for that great idea!
