An Aldi shopper has claimed to witness "the best hack ever" to make make packing shopping at the checkout as simple as possible.
The mum says the fellow shopper "probably thought I was a bit nuts" when she asked for a picture of the trick, which she branded "genius".
Sharing the hack on Facebook, the woman says the customer used an old tissue box to store all her plastic carrier bags, allowing her to pull out on at a time.
She wrote on an Aldi Facebook group: "As I pushed my buggy to the bagging counter, I see the woman next to me pull her plastic grocery sacks out of a Kleenex box.
"I asked her to see the Kleenex box and then laughed right out loud telling her just how brilliant she is.
"She probably thought I was a bit nuts because I wanted a picture of it… But I just had to share.
"She says she keeps this little Kleenex box in the car and always has little grocery sacks handy. Just plain stinkin’ smart."
The post racked up hundreds of comments as people praised the hack, as reported by News.com.au.
One person replied to say: "This is exactly what I call one of the 'Why didn’t I think of that?' moments that I have daily! Brilliant."
A second wrote: "She’s a genius! I’m stealing that idea to keep in my car."
Others said they have used the method to store bags at home, with some suggesting an old baby wipe box works just as well.
However, many admitted they had never considered taking it with them to the supermarket.
Someone else added: "I keep a box under all of my sinks, my garage and laundry room but I never thought of one in my car for Aldi stops. Great idea."
