But the point about those bags is...
... they're reusable.

And not just for a couple of uses: I have bags from over six years ago, which I have used literally hundreds of times. That's a lot of plastic bags saved - whether they're biodegradable or not.

The reusable ones are also a lot stronger than the plastic throwaway ones. Ever tried buying more than one bottle of Coke at once? The plastic bags split and break, so you have to double-bag simply for strength. The reusable ones will easily carry several bottles at once.
