I don't know how many of you will find this useful, but I made grocery bags to carry 12 packs of Coke. The boxes often are not very sturdy, and where we used to live, if a box dropped and broke, you had to retrieve Coke cans from all the way down the hill. Enough of that. The bags are made to hold 2 - 12 packs of soda cans. They are easier to carry than to carry by hand, because it spreads the weight over a great distance than just your hand. Even though I have moved off the mountain, I still use these bags to lug the soda boxes into the house. I used cotton ticking fabric and the strapping material for handles.
