JW, on the idea of stopping off for impulse purchases or on the way home from somewhere else - I do it often. I just only buy so much that I can carry (and I also usually carry a bag, so stuffing my grocery bag in it isn't a big deal). I also find that while walking it much easier for me to carry 4 or 5 things in my hands, my pockets, or my bag than it is to carry either paper or plastic bags that the stores provide. It's a matter of realizing that you might stop somewhere and planning for that, either by carrying a bag with you or carrying your purchases by hand (I can carry a lot more than I thought I could since I only have to walk half a mile or so).
