Yeah, a cheap rack and some of those expandable shopping baskets are the
bomb for putzing about.

I got the nylon baskets a while back on Nashbar for 15 bucks and they're
great for a paper bag of groceries.

I've got a HUGE Timbuk bag from when I actually messengered and it's
amazing how much they can hold and how durable they are, but I think a
well made regular back pack is more comfy and better for your back if you
insist on that route. The Timbuk bag is good if I for some reason want to
carry a 17" monitor on my back--it'll fit. LOL *ouch*
