We had no idea that our local grocery store gave two cents credit for each shopping bag you bring of your own. Cena just found out when she brought our recycled cat food bags turned giant industrial strength shopping bags to the store. If we were to shop every week and use 10 bags that comes to $10.40 a year in savings to us.  Our cat food bag turned shopping bag is much larger than a typical shopping bag so our first time using them we only saved 10 cents (five bags).  Of course, our intent is not to save money.  We really just don’t need all those plastic bags.  We have a tote completely full of them already.
