    Ok so this drives my wife crazy when I do this so I thought I would find out what the rest of you do.

    I am a twist and fold guy. I think that seals the bag just as good as putting that stupid twist tie back on the bag.

    I usually go with the 3 second rule. I look for the twisty on the counter, if I don't see it in 3 seconds the bag just gets twisted and tucked under. If I do see the tie I will put it back on then twist and tuck.

    Generally use clothes pins for our bags - If none available, twist and fold.

    I put the twist tie back on. It drives my wife nuts when I don't.

    Use the tie for a while on new loaf. After I feel there's enough to tuck under the bread to hold it down I do the twist and fold.

    The first time I take it off the bread I throw it away so no body will put it back on

    I'm not falling for the propaganda put forth by the corporate twist-tie machine. I don't need your useless tie that takes more time to implement.

    I tie it in a knot and move on. If it can't be tied in a not I twist and tuck. Both piss off the old lady. But my response to that is that she pisses me off when she gets mad over nothing. So stfu and move on with life
