Now that's a bag for life! Thrifty shopper has been using the same Tesco plastic carrier for 34 YEARS since it was made for chain's 50th birthday in 1981.
Martin McCaskie, 72, has been using the trusty bag almost half his life.
Retired 3 technician from Mold, north Wales, keeps it folded in his coat.
Said the bag has been used some 2,000 times and still comes in handy.
