Why can’t you bring your own reusable one and save the five cents?
Sometimes you forget it at the house.
Then pay the five cents occasionally?
Yes?
Nah, buy a new reusable one. It's not like if they last forever, they need occasional replacement.
Not related to the five cent cost, but there are stores I go to where they don't allow you to take outside containers (like bags) into the store.
Man that's fucking dystopian.
Eh. It's a low-profit-margin store in a bad area of a bad area. I get the rationale, and self-serve shopping is a pretty recent innovation itself (only developing come the 1920s or so). I wouldn't call it dystopian so much as unfortunate.
No offense but then that’s just a five cent tax on choosing that store.
I stand by my statement and my reading skills.
Odd. Not even folded and subsequently unfolded in front of the clerk?
Just reading about reusable bags and theft yeah
