I collected a garbage bag full of plastic shopping bags (like walmart uses). I googled for a dropoff place. This is what I found: http://www.plasticbagrecycling.org/01.0/s01.1.php
Good website to recycle plastic bags

I'm ashamed of you guys. The correct question to ask yourself is........
How can I make this into a really cool pen?
:biggrin:

Here in Montreal most chains started charging 5-10 cents per bag. Bring it here, you can make a killing...

What about those little zip-lok crack bags in every pen kit?I hate to just toss them but after pen making for 6 months,I have enough for a lifetime.
LOL. I thought the same thing first time I saw the little baggies. Maybe I should sell them to a drug dealer and make money back... haha

Most of the supermarkets down in Florida at least have a designated container that allows you to dump off the bags. At our house, I use 'em for Doberpoo pickup. What they do at the dump with them after that, I have no idea.

Our Walmart has a box when you go in that you can put them in. Or take some with you when you go shopping and hand them to the cashier when you are checking out. See what happens. they willl tell you to put them in the box and give you new ones. doesnt make sence.
