I have tons of those plastic babs from the grocery stores. is there a place that recycles or reuses these?

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Walmart has bins just inside the door for you to put them in.
I use them to line waste baskets so I don%26#039;t have to touch the garbage inside when emptying them. Just grab them by the handles and away it goes. njj 67% 4 Votes

  • I assume you mean plastic bags. My grocery store collects old bags in special recycling bins at the store. But I use them for home waste basket liners instead of buying plastic waste basket liners. As long as they end up in a land fill or other waste disposal facility, they are not an environmental problem. It is only a problem if you throw them on the ground so they become litter. That is illegal but people do it any way. 0% 0 Votes

  • Why not keep them and take them with you when you shop, that way you can keep reusing them. You only need to replace one when it breaks which is rare. You needn%26#039;t be embarrassed about it, infact I work in a shop and I am embarrassed FOR the people who ask for a bag to carry milk in. Yes that%26#039;s right, milk that has a HANDLE :) Just keep keep all the bags from that specific shop and take them.

    Like a couple of people suggested, you can reuse them for indoor waste paper baskets, but that%26#039;s only giving them one extra use before they%26#039;re thrown out. :) 0% 0 Votes
