Grocery Bag Holder Lets You Carry a Bunch of Bags and Keep Your Fingers

I have friends that are - well - over weight. I keep telling them that one answer to weight loss is 'don't use you bloody car when go to the local shops, even shopping mall. Get a bus, train, even walk. You'll burn off the calories.'

The usual retort is 'how will I carry all my shopping, dumb arse?'

Answer: buy a couple of these Bag Holders and the problem's solved. It's the simple inventions that prove a lot: Zip, Velcro, Safety Pin, Cat's Eyes, and now Grocery Bags Holders).

The One Trip Grocery Bag Holder is a great idea that should have come about twenty years ago. 

Basically, it is just a simple plastic handle with a clip mechanism that lets you add plastic bags to it – thereby allowing you to carry up to 50lbs in one hand (as long as your muscles are up to the challenge) without cutting off the circulation to your fingers… ingenious.

Unfortunately, in my neck of the woods most people no longer use plastic bags thanks to punitive measurements put into place by local governments.
