Making use of your plastic bags

Use them as bin liners.
Place them in the bottom of plant pots and hanging baskets - they
act as great drainage systems.
Children can use them for carrying PE gear to school.
Scrunch them up to surround items when you're packaging as an alternative
to bubble wrap.
Use them in the garden to hold your grass cuttings and hedge trimmings
before transfer to a compost bin.
Use them when packing for a holiday to keep dirty/wet clothes and
shoes away from dry clothing.
Use them as 'doggy doo bags' when out walking your dog!
Some supermarkets recycle plastic bags, so you can return plastic
bags to them.
Re-use washed zip lock bags for sandwiches and snacks rather than
using plastic wrap.
