Hi Lauren: Just yesterday I noticed how many I had, too.
I don't go to a lot of conventions, but you'd never realize it from the pile of bags. The best ones, the higher-quality cloth, etc, I might use out in public as general totes for library books and dancing shoes and so on. Some have zippers, too, which is really great here in Vancouver because you worry about the stuff in your tote getting rained on. But mostly I use them as project bags for knitting or quilting or sewing. You can get a lot of yarn into some of the bigger ones! Some of the smaller bags have tatting projects, or smaller bits of knitting. A really strong big bag might hold a pile of magazines. If the contents aren't very heavy, you can also store your projects by looping the handles onto a clothes hanger and putting them in a closet.
