I re-use all my little bags too, for trash in small wastebaskets and to take my lunch to work, so I will then have to purchase bags for that purpose. That does seem pretty silly.
I have been eying the reusable bags and am thinking about buying them but here are my two concerns. Maybe someone who uses them can help:
1) How do you launder them? After a bag has had raw meat in it, it's going to have to be washed. Do they hold up in the laundry? Can they be dried?
2) Where in the world do you put them while you shop? I figure I usually have about 20 grocery bags per shopping trip. If I buy 20 of those reusable bags, where do I put them while I'm filling my cart with groceries? If I put them in the cart, there's not room for the groceries or the groceries will end up on top of them. Maybe a special backpack for my bags? This is a logistical problem, for sure.
ETA: Just read MysticCat's post and have to note that even though you can fit twice as much in the reusable bags, you might not want to LIFT twice as much in one bag.. like, I don't want more than two half gallons of milk in one bag!
