Even in spite of best efforts for good systems to remember mine, I still forget them often. The problem in the US is that the system is not complete. The bags need to be made of biodegradable and/or recyclable materials, and every store needs a convenient way to turn in old bags so they can go into a recycling system. There probably shouldn't be a charge for them either.
I have some old cloth bags and they work great. They are probably 15 years old at least but they are made of highly woven cotton so they can take a beating and are machine washable.

JUST GET THE SINGLE USE BAGS.
They are much better for the environment. You can even reuse them. The reusable ones use much more plastic hence are much worse if you don't regularly reuse them.
Cloth bags are even worse. But very nice.

People still use bags? I don't have a car but I go on public transit with my cart and I haven't used bags in forever and even if I did have a car I wouldn't use them because I would just load them directly into my car. Tbh there's not a lot of uses for bags imo. They just seem like it's all extra baggage... Ha..
