Re: Big, inexpensive grocery bags
The ones I like the best I bought at my grocery store. Most stores sell them for 99 cents now.
You don't want them too big, as the stuff on top tends to squish the stuff underneath.

I have those. They're great, hold tons of groceries, and are obviously inexpensive.
One of my biggest bags is the big, blue one from Ikea. Not sure of the price, but, if you are an IKEA shopper, I'd pick one (or more) up. I also use one for a laundry basket.
The other reasonably priced bags I have were bought right at Hannaford, which is a New England-based grocery store. I love them because they fold up to be really easy to store and carry and they were 2/$3 when I bought them. I'd check out what your grocery store has to save on shipping.
I bought some Burban Bags via Amazon.com. They are larger than the ones the grocery stores/Target sell, with longer handles. I can easily carry them over my shoulder even once they're loaded up. They hold a ton of stuff.

I really like the ones from Whole Foods - $.99. They're sturdy and hold their shape when you're putting the food inside.
I also have a couple from Trader Joe's, but they're a little more flimsy. I also have some from Harris Teeter (a southern grocery store chain).
Target has some nice canvas ones.
