Reusable Grocery Bags

This goes into the 'stumbled upon' category.
There's an article in the New York Times about the tax on plastic bags in Ireland.
In 2002, a law was passed which adds 33 cents to every plastic bag.A photo shows a cloth bag at a Superquinn store.
I like it. I want one. I wonder if there are any on eBay.
Do any of the stores in England have bags like these?
We're currently drowning in plastic bags - the broom closet is overflowing with them.
It's time we switched to the reusable ones, but it would be so much more fun to have one from Dublin.
This could be more fun than collecting bookmarks from libraries.
Here's the New York Times article.
