An apparatus for securely holding a flexible material has a first securing member has a first outer circumference and a first shape, and a second securing member having a second inner circumference and a second shape Wherein the second inner circumference is about the same size, or slightly smaller than, the first member's first outer circumference, such that the second member positioned upon the first member creates static friction between the first outer circumference and the second inner circumference. The apparatus has a backing support that is in physical connection with, or incorporated as part of, either the first member or the second member. A thin flexible material, such as a plastic waste bag, placed between the first member and the second member is secured by positioning the first member and second member together, the positioning and static friction not shearing the flexible material. The static friction between the first outer circumference and the second inner circumference secures and immobilizes the thin flexible material contained within.

An embodiment includes a bag comprising mesh and film side walls and a reinforcing strip of film; wherein (a) the mesh side wall is sealed to opposing side edges of the film side wall; (b) the reinforcing strip of film is sealed to an upper portion of the mesh side wall and to the opposing side edges of the film side wall; (c) the film side wall has a bottom extension, which is monolithic with the film side wall, extending upwardly and sealed along a lateral extent of a bottom portion of the mesh side wall; (d) the film side wall is non-coplanar with a portion of the bottom extension; (e) another portion of the bottom extension is non-coplanar with the mesh side wall; and (f) a horizontal axis intersects the bottom portion of the film side wall and three portions of the bottom extension.

The present disclosure includes paper bags and methods for forming paper bags. Some of the bags may include a body, a first attachment portion configured to engage an arm of a bag holder, and a second attachment portion configured to engage another arm of the bag holder. In some aspects, the body defines an opening and includes opposing first and second sides, a first section disposed between the first side and the second side, and a second section disposed between the first and second sides, the second section moveable relative to the first section to define a cavity that is in communication with the opening. The first attachment portion may be closer to the first side of the body than the second side and the second attachment portion may be closer to the second side of the body than the first side.

An illustrated view of an exemplary grocery bag for providing a sanitary use of a grocery bag and subsequent additional uses. The grocery bag is useful for reducing the costs of cotton-based reusable grocery bags, the cost of the reusable bags are a leading reason for consumers declining using these reusable grocery bags. The grocery bag is further useful in having additional uses once the initial use of carrying groceries or other items has occurred, these activities may include cleaning furniture, cleaning counter tops, washing dishes, etc. The grocery bag is preferably made of a natural, 100% cotton gauze material. A body of the grocery bag which has a holding area is preferably eleven (11) inches in height. The holding area of the body of the grocery bag is preferably eleven (11) inches in length. The holding area of the body of the grocery bag is preferably eight (8) inches in width.
