ABSTRACT:
A system and method for shopping are described which includes a lightweight, compact carrier, made of nylon or fabric material, designed to carry a set of reusable shopping bags. The set of shopping bags comprise a plurality of bag structures made of either nylon, fabric or paper material. The bag structures are folded into a compact shape which are then placed on one edge and stacked horizontally in a side by side manner inside the carrier. The entire bottom surface or a band having an identifying color is printed on the bottom surface of each bag structure which identifies the size of the bag structure. During use, the bag structures are folded and stacked inside the carrier so that a portion of the colored bottom surface or colored band on each bag structure is visual when each bag structure is stored inside the carrier which enables the user to identify and select the correct bag structure from the set of shopping bags. Optional colored coded elements may be printed on the outside surface of the front and rear surfaces of the carrier help the user or his assist select the correct bag structure. The lid panel of the carrier may be folded back over and attached to the back side of the carrier to attach the carrier to a shopping cart.
