Glad tall kitchen.

I like them because they fit my can, and I only go through about 2 boxes a year being that I get the 96 count box.

Tall kitchen bags = Cheapest they have. They're going in the trash.
Short trash cans = Plastic bags they pack my groceries in.... Free

Glad tall kitchen or BJ's brand -- both with the draw strings
Ruffies or old grocery bags for the smaller garbage cans.

I go for the cheapest and biggest. Now if only I could train my wife to replace the bag after taking out the trash.

I usually go for the cheapest and biggest too. Work well if you overpile them abit. I also usually double bag, that way you get no rips

Large bags I use the heavy stop and shop 80ct brand.
Smaller I use the ocean state job lot specials 120ct.
Double bag sounds like what we used to tell a buddy about his choice of women were.

Those are what I use too. tough bags. when I last cleaned my room, those things came out and were the only bags to hold up without spilling crap all over the yard and everywhere else.

I like the Kroger 30 gallon bags. Good price and they seem strong enough.

Sam's Club branded (Member's Mark) trash bags. They're cheap and disposable!

Costco for both- I think they're made by Glad. BTW, put a few in the bottom of the trash can before you hook up the new one- that way there's always one conveniently located for replacement. (Otherwise no one will bother)
