Bin that is designed to use carrier bags??

I sure ive seen a bin somewhere a while ago that uses carrier bags.I have just got a wheelie bin and think it would be easier to use all the carrier bags i end up with instead of buying black bin bags.
Any ideas anyone?

Tortoise - I use carrier bags in most bins. For the kitchen bin you just have to buy a small one (measure size of bin against size of usual carrier bag). Having a small bin means that the bin will be emptied more often - so will be less smelly!

lakeland do a stylish one in stainless steel

Ooops, sorry, i thought you emnat a carrier bag holder!!
You actually want a bin. Any standards small bin would be fine for carrier bags. Or why not take a bag woith you and try fitting it when you go bin shopping.

We have one of those bins that attaches to the inside of the kitchen cupboard door so that when you open the door the bin lid pops up - carrier bags fit perfectly in there.

This one from Wickes

Maybe you need a plan like \link{http://www.youhaventlived.com/qblog/2005/QBlog240605A.html\this. a bit OTT me thinks

In all fairness I have the B & Q one and it's pretty hard to clean. So I think the Betterware one is better at least you can see and get at all parts and it's cheap!

the Betterware one was great but they don't seem to do it anymore - anyone know of anything comparable (cheep simple and easy to keep clean) ?
