good. It's not hard to use a reusable. Mine is indestructible, holds all I need, and I can tuck some reusable veggie bags in there and still stuff it in a pocket before i head in.

I need someone to force me to use them, because I always forget. Hopefully if the only option is to buy reusable ones each time, I will eventually remember.

You have to put it somewhere where it will interrupt your normal thought patterns when you go shopping. It will take some time before you begin to remember but eventually it will become part of your thought pattern... ["Wallet, keys, phone, bag..."]

That's pretty much how it goes. For the first few months you find yourself in line without a bag, so you pay an extra couple bucks. Now I've got enough reusable bags in my car it's not a big deal anymore

I love Portlandia, but no, no, no! I need government intervention, not social pressure! Wow, what is wrong with me?
