A lot of cities don't recycle plastic grocery bags if they are put into the regular recycling bins. Please look up if your city recycles them or not. If not, you have to take them to a bag center in a grocery store. Sam goes for any soft plastic packaging such as wrappers, sealing plastic, shipping air bags, etc.
ANOTHER HACK FOR STORING BAGS: Take a trashbag and put all of your plastic bags inside. hang it up anywhere (we have ours in the garage) and cut one of the corners off the trash bag. That was you can store many more bags!

I crochet with plastic bags. There are a few good videos on people making them into sleeping pads for the homeless and I decided to try it. I got my family into it and my mom also made a pad and my dad is making a beach bag.
_TIP: lets say you have half a dozen plastic bags filled with groceries, pick an empty bag, pass it through all the handles of the other bags and tie it, when carrying this bundle spread your fingers holding from different places there so you dont have all the loops digging into the same spot on your hand. feels MUCH LIGHTER_
hey householdhacker the last one you arrnt supposed to do your not supposed to put plastic bags in your recycling bin because apparently its a different way to recycle them but i do take them back to the stores
You can also take a pair of scissors, cut off the handles, then from the top, or from the bottom cut the bag up to form a long string, then you can do this to many a bag, and use them as you'd use yarn. You can make bags out of the bags, or make mats for basically anything. Just look it up. Some even use them to make simple bedding mats, for those in crisis situations.
Geat hacks! Bags are free in the USA... although some stores will reimburse you a nickel for each reusable bag you use when grocery shopping. I wish all stores would do this. Love the wallet trick. They sell these and they're expensive. I think I will try to make one out of fabric and ribbon!
2:19 Do NOT use grocery bags to store food. They are not made from food grade plastic. They could have a lot of harmful chemicals, in the bag and/or ink. And if the store employee bagged your food - think about how filthy their hands are - from touching money, leaking food, etc.
The wasp-nest bag kind of seems like you're inviting more wasps, or at least giving them a larger hive to live in. There are very good reasons to kill wasps. Everything else in this was fantastic.
I like this shyat. I have a ton of plastic bags that I *think* I will need for the future. I never throw them away but they're taking up a lot of space lol.
and keep a few in your car to cover those muddy shoes for the ride home. also if you keep them under the sink for the garbage can in the bathroom, try an old pringles chips can to put them in, it fits great under the sink.
I actually use the OfficeDepot file folding cart. I can load easily 8 2Ltr. bottles and just stack ontop the rest of my grocery. I just shop with it and roll it up to the check stand.
here in italy plastic bags are not avaiable anymore. they give you only compostable ones. it is rare to find shops that give you plastic bags. just the compostable ones. or if you really need them, you have to buy them
Paper or Plastic?

They don't accept them because they tangle the compactor in the truck.

Nice!
That's a waste of a perfectly good trash bag.
What do you mean "one of those people who refuses to make more than one trip from the car"... That's all of us.
👏🏻👌
man that laundry basket for groceries is maybe one of the only things that I'll ever actually ever do after watching these
ok and maybe the ice cream one too lol
or just do what I was originally going to do
Same. I'll def invest in a bungee cord as well
So, did you ever do it?
@@carlavaneeden8383 never did lol
As a student of physics, I can solidly say that an inch is 2.54 cm, NOT 2.45.
But great video nontheless :)

+Son Goku it's unfortunate that "commenting" wasn't on that list
HouseholdHacker lmao
HouseholdHacker touche
I like a good sport. ;)
I've been tempted to do the first one a few times. I have way too many bags and want to store them more efficiently.
wow...love the bungee cord !
Thank you for including the metric system. :)
+DG no problem! Sorry I misspoke about the inch conversion... :(
HouseholdHacker Haha, it's okay. :)
I didn't think anyone would catch that....
He just found the HHinch and is 2.45 mm 😎
the magic phone case thing blew my mind

if your a crafter there are lots of things you can do with bags the plastic bag can be cut and used as yarn it's called plarn
If you are very very ugly, grocery bags can be very helpful, too...

Hmmm Thanks for the tip of the laundry basket. I will surely use that one.
Oooo, I saw two references to the Buffalo Bills in that video!!! Born and raised there!! Great ideas and TFS. Take care...........

Love ur channel SOO use ful☺️
Schrödinger's cat walked into a bar. And it didn't.

Your videos rule, by the way :D

As a grocery store bagger, thanks for all the small talk fuel!
Where did you get that rectangular wire container that was hanging inside your cabinet with hooks? I would live one of those in my kitchen.
my church has a food pantry. I donate mine there.
Perfect!
Hi HouseholdHacker, I just want to mention, that I love your videos.
+Wojtek Kamiński Much appreciated! *heart*
HouseholdHacker I love your videos as well :)

Ill be using a lot of these! Thanks!
Rly great ideas!!! Loved it!! Tyfs, God bless
oh my god. life changer after the first 30 seconds
That's great for my mom. Thanks, Household Hacker☺
every closet in my mother's and grandmother's house: 0:06
I reuse plastic shopping bags a lot. The container trick is one I think I'll use the most from here
Pink sheep would love the magic wallet segment

one of the best uses I've seen, is to crochet/weave them into sleeping mats for the homeless.
Plastic please!! These were some good ideas!! Thanks!! 🤓
thank you for taking the time to convert to metric, you just saved tons of collective time for your viewers :)
I HAVE THE SAME MAGIC WALLET WITH THE SAME MUSTACHE DUCT TAPE I MADE IT 5 YEARS AGO OMGGG
The fact that you're a Bills fan earned another sub
Science! this is great ..Thanks!!
This is filmed like those TV infomercials from the 2000's.
+WolfBlaz EXPOSED!
I STILL CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE PHONE ONE WORKS I'M SO CONFUSED
I usually think these videos are kind of goofy, but this one was really full of good ideas. Great job.
1:17 I get carsick on Bills logos, too.. 😅😅
Another storage idea: shove the plastic bags in empty paper towel or toilet paper rolls. Works surprisingly well
You can also make a swing set and a hammock 100% out of plastic bags
Wow
1:18 Whoops! I dropped my chick pea soup with extra water on my car floor mats!
gr8 bag hacks!

xD
yea
These hacks are so awesome! totally trying the baby wipes container hack!
"Hey, we all have skeletons in our closet!"
Me: Finally! Someone! What? What's wrong about having skeletons in your closet?
We never have too many grocery bags at my house cause we have like 7 mini trash cans hidden around, all of which are used.
I thought Safeway was an old defunct British supermarket! Who knew?
Fellow Bills fan!!! Hey there!!
Bungee cord? I have that lying around my house.
i like this reusable plastic bag hacks. its saving the environment
you can also turn those plastic bags into sleeping mats for the homeless. it provides comfort whilst allowing the bedding to stay dry from the damp.
Damn it I love this channel 😂🙌🏼
Helpful

A lot of grocery bags are poo. I don't even want them. They break like before you even leave the store. l=/
They cost 5p each in the UK now
You are very helpful i have been using a lot of these like the security thing i got the things
pretty cool the yellow jacket hack...
1/4 of my bags are so thin these days I have to toss them as they have holes in them as soon as they are removed from the rack.
Householdhacker love your vids keep it up
Jeez, how did you get so crafty??
REPPIN THE BUFFALO BILLS ❤️💙

I did the plastic bag in a box hack and my mum loved it
Here's another one! Have a dog but don't want to spend some big bucks for doggy bags? Tie some plastic bags onto your leash and BAM! Saving money
Thanks household hacker!
uh i am still confused from the magic box thing
Thats a good selection of refreshe good sir
Fun fact: Tote Bags require almost 50 uses to be better for the environment. You should still use them, but make sure they last.
Very helpful!
That ice cream is really good
i love your life hacks
2:59 where can I buy a rack like that?

I love how you begin to use metric now.
