What Do You Call It?

Welcome to Tuesday 4 which was started by our friend Toni Taddeo and kept up in memory of her.
 Different sections of the USA have different words and customs they use. Let's talk about
them.

1. In New Jersey you put your groceries in a paper bag or plastic bag.  In Athens, Ohio where I went to
university, you put them in a paper sack.

Is it bag , sack or something else where you live?

2. Though no one seems to wear them anymore, NJ says  Stockings.  
 Athens,  Ohio used to call them "hose" and in Britain they are tights. 
What about where you live?

3.Soda, Pop, Coke? 
Hero, sub, grinder, hoagie?
 
4. Shopping cart or trolley. buggy?
 What do you call it?
