I have recently arranged to acquire an awesome tote (shopping) bag from DiscountASP.Net. They’re my hosting company for this site. The PDC is happening in Los Angeles at the moment, and DiscountASP.Net have some representatives there. Takeshi Eto who is their VP of Marketing and Business Development mentioned that their staff would be going around the conference with tote bags, and I’m ashamed to say that I blagged one from him. Very kindly he agreed to send one, which is nice for me. Since moving here I’ve actually started to use these bags a lot. Unlike London or Dublin you get charged here for bags in a shop. Therefore I have an extensive collection of fabric shopping bags I’ve had to buy, as a result of having gone to the shop too many times without remembering to bring a bag with me. Recently I’ve found a favourite bag – one that is large enough for all my typical shopping, and heavy enough to handle the loads I put in it. I’ll post some pictures as soon as I get the actual bag. Props to Takeshi Eto for organising this!

Updated: I forgot to add that DiscountASP.Net have a blog here.

Nice bag Dave, but a correction to your post - Ireland has been charging shoppers for plastic bags since 2002. I think it's 22 cents per carrier bag these days.. There is no plastic bag tax in the UK (yet)

Hey John, I didn't actually know that, although my parents' local supermarket (I think its a SuperValue, but I'm not entirely sure to be honest) have charged us for bags in the past. I thought it was just something nice that they did to support the environment. However I moved to London in 1998 so I guess I missed that in Ireland. In London we use plastic as you know.
