     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
       [0025]    Wheels on connecting straight rails attached to the bottom of a shopping bag is a specific improvement to the prior art and distinguishes the rolling, EZ BN GREEN SHOPPING BAG WITH WHEELS from—FIGS.  3  and  4 —other shopping bags. The accompanying marsupial totebag, handbag or CartGoPants provide storage compartments for the shopping bag with wheels vehicle and make the prior art a metal personal shopping cart hauled empty to the user&#39;s destination, undesirable.— FIGS. 1 ,  2 , and  5   
         [0026]    As an example of the use and benefits of The EZ BN GREEN SHOPPING BAG WITH WHEELS, consider the following documentation by the inventor, that began when the use of public transportation became the agenda. 
         [0027]    Carrying heavy, clumsy bags of groceries in paper, plastic or cloth shopping bags, was not easy, whether walking or riding the bus. Plastic bags, that not only cause CO2 issues usually break before you leave the parking lot. Paper bags also tear. Expensive groceries end up on the ground. 
         [0028]    Cloth shopping bats are sturdier, but just as burdensome. Hand carrying heavy loads guarantees sore cramped arms, hands neck legs or back. Heart attack or stroke threaten the lives of the elderly. 
         [0029]    Personal shopping carts require the user devise a strategy that includes pulling an empty cart to their destination, while hoping for no altering of plans that could halt the day&#39;s activities, due to the prior art&#39;s limited accessibility. 
         [0030]    Knowing there had to be an easier way to do mandatory grocery shopping, the inventor began harvesting plans of action. Wheels have always been a good idea. Making life a little more easy and a little more green with a little more money in your pocket in spired the inventor even further. 
         [0031]    The present invention is ideal for those who prefer not to hand carry loads of groceries. Instead they can wheel them in a lightweight vehicle, which adds as a benefit good cardio exercise. The prior art, hand carried plastic, cloth or paper bags, may cause over exertion and further injure the user st knees back arms legs heart etc. 
         [0032]    Throw away paper or plastic bags are more likely to add to CO2 landfill gases. The present invention is made from re-usable outdoor canvas and does not contribute to CO2 issues. 
         [0033]    The present invention makes walking to shop for groceries an alternative to driving and therefore may help to reduce auto emissions while averting high gas prices. 
         [0034]    The prior art a personal metal shopping cart, forces the user to maintain boundaries and therefore requires premeditated use. The present invention can be stored in the go anywhere—accompanying marsupial totebag handbag or CartGoPants, when not in use. 
         [0035]    The present art&#39;s marsupial totebag and handbag, snap on to the handles of the shopping bag on wheels to form on e container and make the user more hands free. 
         [0036]    The totebag and handbag can be unzipped once conjoined with the shopping bag on wheels to form a single opening and add to container space. 
         [0037]    In summary the EZ BN GREEN SHOPPING BAG WITH WHEELS saves the user time and money is more health conscious and does not harm the environment. 
         [0038]    There may be plans to establish a company and sell EZ BN GREEN SHOPPING BAGS WITH WHEELS. Further modifications of the invention also may occur and all such are deemed to fall within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
