Using grocery bags as travel luggage may look cool, but...

Everyone deserves a nice luggage set.

I know, grocery bags are free (but are they really?).

But how about saying goodbye to plastic bags and hello to real luggage without breaking the bank?

Target has a pretty good deal on luggage - $67.22 for a 6-piece set.

Nice sale all right, but why is it so hard to find luggage that doesn't come in black? The luggage on sale at Target, for example, only comes in black and brown.

So you may do what we do and tie them with bright ribbons or use masking tape so you can spot your travel bags among a sea of black luggage doing the loopty loop on the airport conveyor belt.

A co-worker says he ties a red bandana around 'em to spot 'em better.

Colors, man! That's what I'm talking about. Can we lighten up a little with the luggage?
