Chuck – It was an impulsive buy. If I was at a grocery store, it would’ve been a pack of gum or the National Enquirer, but it was IKEA, so all I could really get near the checkout was the bag.

bikerbabeee – A better way to keep the freaks with the religious propaganda away from your door…electric fence.

Stelmarta – Not all European things are classy. Example? The Spice Girls.

stephanie – That’s such a big bag for dog poop…unless your dog is Clifford the Big Red Dog, then it’s way too small.

FatYoli – Wow. Homeless people must be living large in the cardboard box mansions. :-)

Mad Cow – At least you can drive to another state to go to an IKEA. I have to fly across the ocean. Also, I hope I find your lost IKEA card, so that I may return it to you with a balance of 5 cents.

Clevegal42 – Walmart bags are a good size too. I guess they have to be in order to fit all the crap I didn’t intend to buy.

Erika – I wish an IKEA was my house.

Buffy – I’ll just give it to the crazy homeless guy on my street. He’ll probably use it as a hat or a new best friend.

Natalia – I have a 2007 IKEA plastic bag in used condition. Wanna trade?

ultradave – I always seem to end up at IKEA whenever I visit my friends on the West Coast and I usually buy something. Maybe because I don’t have easy access to one, so I feel the need to buy something. Also, with all the walking I do during each visit, I think that time spent should equal to some purchased merchandise.

I’ve been to the Ikea near here three times…only to end up eating there and not buy a damn thing. Turns out this is pretty normal from what others say. Weird.

I collect plastic bags.

I’m especially proud of my vintage 1965 Piggly Wiggly. It’s in excellent condition. If I had a mantel, I would frame it and hang the masterpiece above it.

Marvo, let me warn you….collecting plastic bags starts off innocently enough. But one day you’re facing an entire cabinet FILLED to the brim with shopping bags of every variety and shape. Then you find yourself eyeing the little retangle bags bread comes in, thinking “Yeah, I can store something in that”…..but you CAN’T.

It’s an addiction. Discard the bag now or face, at the least, an imminent intervention – or at the most, THE LOSS OF YOUR SOUL!

If IKEA was a man, I’d marry him. That has nothing to do with a bag. Except, I’d be his old bag. Although technically I’m not old. Or a bag.

I prefer to use my Giant Eagle or Kroger or Walmart bag for body parts – they are semi opaque (semi translucent?), but how I keep the people away is splitting them up into multiple bags, leaving a hand stick out of one, and then run to the dumpster with them screaming “They all weigh the same! They all weigh the same!”

My wife and I lost our Ikea gift card given to us by her aunt after only spending $25 of $100. Think of how many bags that could have bought. No use now anyway, there are no Ikeas in Colorado.

here in europe they charge you for the plastic bag, but you can take as many cardboard boxes as you want for free ;)

Stephanie – Maybe around Halloween, they mention picking up body parts also.

if you look on the side of target bags there is a long list of things you can do with your target bag when you get home, like pick up dog poop.
