I always have a small, waste can sized, plastic bag with me. I also always have one in my truck. Over the years I've found all kinds of stuff that I wanted and needed a tote bag for.
At a bus stop I found 24 cans of mackerel. I've found brand new trowels, with the label on'm. I once found about $100 worth of reloading tools, brass and cleaning supplies dumped by the side of the road.
When I worked patrol, in the Fall I'd take one of my coffee breaks in the National Park along the river and pickup pecans. One year I picked up close to 25 lbs of free pecans.
And yep, I've salvaged meat off of gut shot game and road kill. A Lady driving on a road clipped the head of a doe and I got the backstrap.
I've also used a bag to preserve evidence when it started raining at a crime scene. I've split a bag and used it as a poncho until I could get back to my vehicle for a real raincoat.
You never know when you’ll find something or someone might offer you something for free and you need a bag.

Good idea, Mike... Where is Poteet at? To lazy to look it up right now.. I've been following you comments on some of the survival threads... Was wondering how close you were to DFW area...

I try to remember small plastic grocery bags for trash while on the road but end up using them for something else. I often forget a stringer when i go fishing and just throw trout in the bag. I've used them recently when dove hunting. This summer i gathered a bunch of Blackberries, and yes i've pulled the old make shift rain coat also.
