Garbage bags

Does anyone know of any decent garbage bags that can be purchased in China that aren't ridiculously flimsy and immediately fall apart at the slightest use?
I've been bringing my own garbage bags from the US to China in my carry on luggage, but that just seems a little, err....'excessive'.

(....it is funny though, to see the same US-made garbage bag I just used to drop off my garbage a few minutes earlier at the apartment complex garbage-drop-off-area being emptied and salvaged while driving by on my way to work. )

Aye. Bought some off JD that I thought would be good, but they were equally as bad as the store-bought ones.

That's exactly what I am after, yes. Just have no idea where to find those.
We have large bags at work, but they are really "insubstantial".

Do these look substantial enough?

Nah, not really. Thanks though.
Pretty sure almost all these are generated from the same thin material stock.

Also, I don't really want BIG bags, I need strong 'tall kitchen' (13 gal) bags.

I feel your pain, I used to bring mine from the US as well.
