Don't Go Cheapo

Today I cleaned my office at the church. Churches keep more junk that women. I got rid of an old broken printer, a book of trucker song lyrics, 10 year old water balloons & some clown face paint (just to name a few plus one). I got rid of these things into the garbage can (duh), but taking the bag out to the dumpster proved to be a very difficult process. The bags are so cheap that they practically disintegrate upon contact with trash (which is, you know, not a good trait for trash bags) or human hands. Anyways, I'm sure it was quite humorous if any neighbors were watching out their windows.
Lesson: Buy nice thick garbage bags
What have you learned not to go cheapo on?

Next year, when we finally get through the gigantic box of cheap garbabge bags, we will be sure to get better ones. Of course, I will look the other way if the the gigantic box magically disappears and we have to order more bags this year.
