Abstract
Reusable shopping or produce bags are made from a fabric material. The fabric material may be woven or non-woven. The bags may be used with existing grocery store fixtures. For example, a reusable shopping bag can be designed to hang on existing checkout fixtures designed for conventional plastic shopping bags. Similarly, a roll of produce bags can be dispensed from an existing fixture designed for conventional plastic produce bags. Thus, the bags may be used in grocery stores with little to no reconfiguration of existing check outs and product display areas.
