This is a device comprised of a loop shaped device to hold a plastic bag, a carrying rod of which one end is attached to the loop shaped device, a securing device such as a bracket to attach the loop shaped device to one end of the carrying rod, and a plastic bag, preferably a plastic bag such as a grocery bag, etc. placed inside the loop shaped device with its upper portion folded over the loop and its ends tied to the rod where the loop shaped device is attached.
