For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they’re much easier to grab.

    Bring a cardboard box to the grocery store. Checkout is fast and the checkers/baggers love it

      Or reusable bags. We have some here made of fabric(Or is it cloth? Don’t know the right term) that we’ve been using for years.

        Best of both worlds, we have reusable bags which are shaped like boxes with carry handles and enough structure to keep their shape while carrying stuff. The first store we ever got them at was Food Lion, but I’ve seen them available from Wegmans now too.

          I have the regular bags from Food Lion and have been amazed at how sturdy they are.

          I only recently noticed they also sell the rigid bags as well, and now I’m thinking of upgrading

            Do it! My only complaint about the box-bags is that they are so damned handy they end up getting used for everything around the house and can be unavailable for grocery shopping. Also, if you’re like me and try to carry way too many groceries into the house at once (why make two trips, when I can injure myself in one?), they hold lots more at one go.

        Those seem to throw off the baggers. They’re set up to use plastic bags and the fabric bags break up their routine.
