A cotton-based single use grocery bag for carrying groceries or other items. The single use grocery bag is also used for cleaning furniture, cleaning counter tops, washing dishes, etc. The single-use grocery bag may include the a body made of a cotton gauze material defining an internal compartment between a first side, a second side, a third side, a fourth side, a top, and a bottom, wherein the internal compartment is accessed through an opening at the top; the first side and the third side each comprise edges coupled together at a bottom portion of the body and separated at a top portion of the body; and the separated edges define a gap communicating the internal compartment with an outside of the body, wherein each gap is entirely disposed downward relative to the top and the opening and communicates the internal compartment to the external environment.

An apparatus includes a housing, first handles, second handles and zippers. The housing may be (i) made of a flexible material and (ii) have compartments. The first handles may be (i) attached to an end of the housing and (ii) configured to hang the housing in an upright orientation. The second handles may be attached to another end of the housing. The housing is generally configured to bend such that the first handles are aligned with the second handles to facilitate carrying of the housing. The zippers may be configured to provide an opening into a corresponding compartment suitable to pass recyclable beverage containers. Each compartment may have (i) a zipper proximate a top end of the compartment to insert the recyclable beverage containers and (ii) another zipper proximate a bottom end of the compartment to remove the recyclable beverage containers.

A reusable plastic bag having as well as a reusable plastic bag with holding straps have internal bag inserts for receiving one or more beverage bottles. A plastic film layer is connected to the inside of a front and/or rear wail of the plastic bag at least in portions, by way of at least two welded or adhesively bonded areas which are spaced apart from one another and extend from a point spaced apart from a base edge of the bag towards or as far as an opening edge of the bag, so as to form the internal bag inserts, which are open towards the bag opening and are each configured and designed to receive one or more beverage bottles.

The invention relates to a bag, basket, or container (1), with a substantially troughor basket-shaped design having a rigid and/or reinforced base region (2), a circumferential side wall (3), and an upper region (4) which is open or can be opened, and is provided in this region which is open or can be opened with a rigid, substantially oval, elongated or rectangular circumferential frame (5) or reinforcement, and the frame has, on at least the surface facing away from the interior, a substantially circumferential groove (6) or edge for receiving a tightening and/or retaining means (7) of a sealing cover and/or for receiving a sealing cover (8).

A bag including a main body defining a storage compartment and a first magnet unit disposed on the main body. The first magnet unit is configured to connect by magnetic force to another magnet unit disposed on a second bag, a base, or the main body. The first magnet unit of the bag is configured to disconnect from the magnet unit disposed on the second bag, the base, or the main body by applying a force exceeding the magnetic force between the first magnet unit of the bag and the magnet unit disposed on the second bag, the base, or the main body.

A self-weighing expandable bag includes an inner receptacle that can slide vertically within an outer sleeve under the weight of bag contents. One or more springs, which may include coils and/or elastic fabric, connect the inner receptacle to the outer sleeve. One or more bag handles are attached to the sleeve. As the weight of the contents of the receptacle increases, the receptacle slides down within the sleeve and increasingly protrudes under the sleeve, expanding the vertical extent of the bag and revealing graphical markings underneath the sleeve and/or within a window defined in the sleeve.

The disclosure provides a container (or bag) that is sufficiently rigid stand on its own yet is sufficiently flexible for a user to deform the bag to create a pour spout. Due to this balance of rigidity and flexibility, when open, the opening of the container maintains a shape and dimension that gives easy, one handed, access to the contents and allows contents to be poured into the container without need of support. The bag has a closure that may include a rod that nests within a channel. The rod and channel can be configured such that the rod can be pressed into the channel and pulled out of the channel repeatedly without causing damage to the container, thereby creating a convenient container for carrying food, or other items.
