Default Shopping bags gone wild

How to prevent shopping bags sliding around in the front trunk? I know there's plastic trunk liner from suncoastparts, but it seems that the bottom surface is quite smooth.

Any suggestion? I thought about Velcro cargo net, but seems like all I can find is made in China. I don't want anything from China in my 911.

How about a blanket? Folded it will keep things from sliding around, or protect the lining, cushion loads, infinitely configurable! http://shop4.porsche.com/usa/lifesty...rs-of-911.pdds

Amazing -- $130 for a polyester blanket.

When my 991S arrived I installed a complete carpet set which included carpet for the Frunk. From Lloyds I think.

I have that blanket rolled up in my frunk. Yes, it's pricey, but it's actually quite nice. I was given it as a gift.

As for the original question - isn't there some Audi trunk hook that someone here installed? You can hook the bag handles on it and it keeps them upright.

Found it!

There's always young children. Might help build character, but side effect could be mental trauma.

I deferred to my wife, since she knows all things shopping. Her response, "Simple, put more bags in the frunk!".

I use a cheap plastic tote bought at Walmart then I just carry the tote to the kitchen to put my groceries away. I use the same tote for towels and weekend supplies when I head to the marina. Then doubles for a hamper for wet towels, swimwear and clothes. It really worked well last week when I made a Sams run.

Correction:

Bought a few cheap totes from Lowes for my move a few years ago.

I use two cat boxes.

You can also use a plastic concrete mixing tray.

My dog hates me on the cat box thing.

Never thought of using a polyester blanket, thanks for the very good idea, Chuck911! Look like it is moderately water proof too, so should be useful when transporting frozen items.

Looks like this is very useful but not sure about the installation..do I need to make two holes on the cargo lining or drill somewhere for the bolt?
