We've discussed how frequently some of us who have clothbagsforget to

seat*, and *still* forget them when I go into the store.

I think I just achieved the Pinnacle Of Stupid for cloth bag behavior.

I only needed a couple-three things.  I actually remembered to take a bag
with me.  Not doing a big shop, I didn't even bother with a cart or
basket.  I took my couple-three things to the checkout.  I checked out.. As
I was walking away with my plastic bag of groceries I remembered that I
had the cloth bag tucked *under my left arm* the whole time I shopped --
and checked out.

So, do I win?  I'll start working on my acceptance speech...

Over the past few years our cloth range has become more and more
popular. The amusing thing is I own a company that supplies printed
bags and even I forget to take one to the shops.
