I utilize paper bags often. There are various things I need to transport that they seem to accommodate quite well.
I even went so far as to buy a bale of these thinking they were standard grocery bags only to find they were about half that size. My dismay over this persists presently.
This is likely because I couldn't get them out of my face because my mom doesn't think ANYTHING should ever be discarded.
I continue to remain a bit perturbed over this matter.
Today is Paper Bag Day. AKA World Paper Bag Day it goes down each July 12 annually in the name of the paper sack.
This all purpose carry all is a boon to humanity ...
Unless you buy an entire bale of the wrong size bags and then can't get rid of them — so much for a little satisfaction.
The origins of the day remain unknown. A lot of people were involved in the evolution of the paper bag so just snag one when you can and set it aside — as long it's the correct size.
