The present invention is a device for opening plastic bags, such as produce bags at the grocery store. Since those bags are made of very thin plastic, they can often be hard to open, and consumers have to lick their fingers to increase friction enough to unstick the two layers of plastic from each other and open the bag.

The wheel may be turned by means of a handle, or by means of a motor connected to a motion detector. If a plastic bag is inserted into the gap between the high-friction wheel and the protrusion, the bag will open, since the high-friction wheel will slide the top layer of plastic with respect to the bottom layer of plastic. Such a device may be mounted near a plastic bag dispenser at the grocery store or on a shopping cart, so that consumers do not need to remember to bring along yet another gadget.
