Nobody does napkin math anymore? One use bag is about 2-10 grams of plastic. 100x that is 200 grams to 1kg.

The math is easy, but I don't have a tiny scale or specs on the weight of either bags. Where did you get 2-10 grams?
In stores we have selfservice weighting scales for fruits and veggies that print the barcode. There's an option "with one-use bag/without bag" and the one-use bag option subtracts 2 grams.
