So, with the demise of the 15c heavy-duty plastic bags, what's a good replacement?

I've been using them since they were introduced - the best thing about them is that if you carefully fold then roll them, they're amazingly compact, and you can fit like three in your back pocket, which is perfect when you don't have a car and want to grocery shop on your commute.

The cotton and paper ones are just too bulky to carry around with you like this. I've found some thin nylon-type ones, but they're pretty sad and small - has anyone found something that's thin, large and sturdy?

I don't know but here is a tip: I have something called The Bag Of Shame which is a floral print bag. It looks awful and I hate it with passion. It lives in my car boot as a spare, if I ever bring it inside my wife shames me for forgetting the usual bags at home.

This way it is always in my car as a backup.
