A tabless, self-opening T-shirt-styled thermoplastic bag is provided having a handle, stress relief notch, and mounting tab structure for providing a wide-opening bag mouth and a bag having high weight carrying capacity. Handles have a narrow upper portion, a wide middle portion and a narrow lower portion. Handle mounting apertures are provided in the wide middle portion, which projects inwardly above the mouth of the bag. The handle mounting apertures are formed by a blade having an elongate section that is bent to form an obtuse angle. The handle mounting aperture has a sufficient width for accommodating arms of a dispensing rack and a height about three times as great as the width. The bag has a central mounting tab extending above the mouth of the bag and between the handles. A stress relief notch having a reasonably tight radius of curvature is provided between each handle and the mounting tab. The mounting tab has a mounting aperture formed by two blades meeting at a sharp corner, the corner having essentially no radius of curvature. A severable region is provided between the corner and an outer edge of the mounting tab, which can tear as the bag is removed from a mounting hook on a dispensing rack. Multiple bags are aligned and bonded together to provide a unitary pack, where pulling one bag off a dispensing rack pulls an adjacent bag open.
