No plastic

Does anyone know where I can buy reusable produce bags. 

Trying to give up using plastic bags as I am collecting so many from my usual visits to Foodland, Makro etc

Any of those sidewalk stores that sell everything. They are still made of heavy duty plastic, available in different sizes, but they at least last a long time. We take a few to Makro when we do our  shopping and don't use their plastic bags at all. I'd like to find some of heavy duty canvas or natural material, but for now the striped bags will have to do.

I saw some nice ones hanging up behind the till at Siamburi the other day, 30 baht I think they were

Just have a look at the Tuesday-Friday-Sunday market at Soi Buakhao and South Road (and maybe other markets around Pattaya). They have several sellers of second hand canvas-bags of various size and colors for as cheap as 20, 10 or 5 baht! Many of them come from South-Korea (I suppose they have strict anti-plastic laws there) and most are advertising type. Some of them are very nice (like the one I use when I go shopping to BigC) and they are strong/solid (use some for tools, sport shoes,...) and can go to washing machine. A good cheap option IMHO. :smile:

I'd need 50 of the largest size for my monthly shop.
