| I still get the bags at the Dollar Store. They still sell them around here. It's like 40 bags for $1! I better stock up before they decide to stop selling them here, lol

| My girlfriend gets them on a roll at the pet store. You can put them in a holder that looks like a bone and attach it the dog's leash. I just grab a handful when I go to the park. Where we live they are all over the place for free, however you must be careful with the biodegradable ones. They kinda disolve in your pockets if you forget about them. |

| My apartment has several stations outside where they supply the bags. I roll a bunch out and re-stock every few days I also use them when I clean the cat box... haha I'm bad!

| I use Sassy bags. They are for diapers so they hold quite a lot. I get them at KMart, 50 bags for $2.99 but ToysR Us also has them. The best part is they smell like baby powder.

| Whole foods has the rolls of poop bags for $1.99 for four rolls. They aren't fancy like the ones Petsmart or PetCo have but they do the trick. |

| I use Baggies. Sometimes they are hard to find. I get them at WalMart. They come with twist ties, but I just tie a knot. They are easier than the ziploc or fold-over sandwich bags. If you are ever near a swapmeet or place that sells bags to vendors, you can get a whole case of small bags really cheap. I like the black ones. Now that I am no longer near a big Flea Market, I use the Baggies. When I go out picking up poopies, I tell people I am hunting for eggs -- you know like Easter eggs!

| ritzydaisy... Easter eggs? lol. Cute! Now I'll have a whole new vision when I'm doing pickup duty. Either ziploc or foldover baggies for us too. Dollar Store, if we remember, otherwise just purchased wherever we are (grocery, dept store, whatever). With the foldovers, I just tie the baggie into a knot and it goes out into the garbage bin (with lid) in the garage immediately. There are many times when I do this that I am thoroughly grateful that we do not own a large dog. ~Susan

| I use the cheapest sandwich bags from whatever store I'm shopping in. I also use a paper towel with it. Then I tuck and roll the bag and dispose. This way no one sees poop in the bag. It seems whenever I put my hand in a coat pocket I have a poopy bag in there |

| Poop Bags I reused the ones I get my grocery's in from the grocery store and also the bags my newspaper comes in. Why add more plastic to the landfills? |

| I use Mutt Mitts because they reduce the gross factor. It's almost impossible to get it on your hands when you use it correctly, and it's 2-ply so it doesn't smell. I just carry them in a little pouch. For the yard I use doubled-up Target bags. Target bags are thicker and bigger than regular grocery store bags. Plus I try to use re-usable bags at the grocery store but always forget them at Target! And I use paper bags to recycle, so I get those when I forget my grocery bags. |

| Whatever plastic bags I have at home laying around! In the backyard we just shovel them and put them in the garbage. |
