the happy IKEA blue bag

So when I was in Phoenix, I impulsively bought two of the blue IKEA bags for 59 cents.  I have to be honest, I said that I was going to use them, but didn't really think that I would.  Holy crap those things are handy.  Honestly.  Anyone want to go to IKEA and buy me a couple more? 
 
So far in the past week and a half almost wo weeks I have used them for the following:
  • recycle bin (this is a dedicated bag, it holds an incredible amount of stuff and the handles make it super easy to carry)
  • grocery bag carrier (I had four bags from Sunflower and two from Safeway the other night and for the first time, able to move all my bags in at one time.... easily)
  • trash bag (I could empty all my smaller trash cans - bathroom, bedroom, scraps, lint holder etc into the one bag and then take out to the dumpster)
  • laundry bag (well I didn't use it for that, because my laundry room is very close to the bedroom, but it so could work)
  • goodwill donation bag (lots and lots of stuff can go in here I learned.  I think I got rid of more stuff than I anticipated)
  • book bag (books to storage was the motivation)
  • soil bag carrier
  • catch all in my trunk (this is why I need a couple more)
