What is a "shopping bag"?

A shopping bag is a type of bag used for carrying items that have been purchased from a store or market. These bags come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials, from large reusable canvas bags to small disposable plastic bags. They often feature handles or straps for easy carrying, and some may have additional pockets or compartments for storing smaller items. While shopping bags are primarily used for carrying purchased items, they can also be used for a variety of other purposes, such as carrying personal belongings or as an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional gift wrapping.
