Wrong.
Plastic grocery bags should never go in your recycling bin. The get caught in the machinery at the recycling plant. The same goes for all flimsy plastic like dry cleaner bags, produce bags, plastic wrap, etc.
You can take these back to the grocery store where you'll usually find a large bin or box for these. They are recycled. Some companies make them into plastic logs and planks used for building such things as decks.
An even better use for these bags: A group at The Fountains at La Cholla cuts grocery bags into strips and crochets them into sleeping mats for homeless people. The mats are light and easy to carry.
The next best alternative is not to use plastic grocery bags. It's easy to find cloth bags for your groceries, and they are stronger and you can put more in them.
