How to make Grocery Panniers for $4

I had this idea for inexpensive, functional grocery panniers for my bike. I just got done constructing them and they seem to be holding up really well!

It seems like every grocery store is now offering those reusable grocery bags. Turns out they can be easily reconfigured into some panniers!

The materials are really simple:
2 reusable grocery bags
1/4" thick 2'x4' piece of masonite (or "hardboard" at Home Depot; same stuff used for clipboards)
1 bungee cord

I got my bags from Kroger. Other possible places include Target, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Meijer, Walmart, Publix, and Ikea. They also make insulated ones which would be great for refrigerated items.

Tip: You can get a piece of the wood deeply discounted if you look for one that's damaged. This one was $2, normally $3.75.

Cut some of the wood to fit into the bags:

I stapled the wood inside the bags to keep them in place.

Then cut two of the handles in the middle:

Sew the bags together:

Then, throw them over your bike rack!

Use a bungee to keep them in place, and voila! You have lightweight panniers that fold down flat and that you can take into the store with you!

I loaded up the panniers with random items to test them out and they work great! I'll go do some shopping tomorrow so I can use them for real! Sure beats paying $50+ for ones from the bike shop.

Enjoy!

How cool is that!

The price dude, the price!

Erm, not. really. my. thing. Nice idea though.

Want a tshirt that just says "Used to be a hipster"

Now selling.

I've one of these stems (http://www.lfgss.com/thread13104.html) and want to trade it for a BMX style stem. Its used and so does have some marks on it but all are superficial.

Best,

I know (sniff sniff) I know!! For the best though :)

Hey! Need cash to pay for new handle bars & grips so selling my most loved shoes.
Hand made Loake Chiswicks bought for bday a few years ago. Full oak heel, full leather lined etc, they've been re-soled by Timpsons with a rubber sole as think leather soles lack grip/ practicality.

Been worn a fair bit and there is signs of wear and tear but the heels and sole's have got plenty of life left in them and anything else is very small and superficial.
I've had loakes in the past that were 15+ yrs old, they just last forever, if you look after them. (http://bit.ly/qUvCvQ)

The Chiswick shoe isn't on their website but its basically the Bamburgh £185 - http://www.loake.co.uk/Shop/Products/Loake+Catalog+GBP/PID-BAM(Loake+Catalog).aspx#

Looking for £60 + postage (I'm in Bedford, Bedfordshire)
