grocery bag

Checkout counter receptacle

A grocery bag is a bag used to carry items purchased at a grocery store or supermarket.

These may be disposable bags provided by the store—traditionally paper or plastic—or reusable bags that shoppers bring from home.

I forgot my grocery bags and had to buy new ones at checkout.

Environmental concerns have led many jurisdictions to ban or charge for single-use plastic grocery bags.
