I did to, a long time ago.

The grocery store even had a special stand for them.

It allowed them to be kept open by wrapping the handles of the bags
around metal bars. Which they did with great enthusiasm, wrapping them
several times and very very tightly.

This, of course, caused the cloth to abrade and the handles to give
out long before the bags were otherwise unusable.

That doesn't work with plastic. Or, at least, not as quickly.

Endless games, that's what we have here.
