Give yourself a week to pass them on to someone who can use them. If you still have them then, keep the best one or two and put the rest into the recycling!!! Clutter starts this way, so nip it in the bud :-)

These are all great ideas but I really love this one. I've always folded down the top of a paper lunch bag and taped it to the side of my machine but it tends to fill up a little quicker. This will give me a larger 'trash can!'

I use them as gift bags, glue or paste a greeting card or something over the store name like Macy's or the Bed bath works but a gift tag and bow ; wah!lah! there you are. . beats paying $$"s for wrapping paper of gift bags. No worry they are gone out of my bag stash

I work at our local food bank and we always use large paper grocery bags inside of plastic sacks to distribute the food. Also if you a clothing distribution at your food bank, we can always use hangers.

I had some of these, and I had some leftover cans of spray paint with small amounts of spray paint. I took them outside and hung them up and put a few light coats of paint on them, sometimes 2 colors. I even cut out a stencil of stars out of a piece of paper and sprayed that design on a couple of them...they made awesome one of a kind gift bags. I used up some bags AND got rid of some partial cans of spray paint!

We used old greeting cards to cover the logos. Mark the bag at the cards corners. and cut little slits to the card's corners can slip in to the slits. We added buttons and ric rac & ribbon to finish decorating them. Add a piece or two of tissue paper and sell for $1 or more~
