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?

[–] rollerbang@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

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.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

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.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No offense but then that’s just a five cent tax on choosing that store.

I stand by my statement and my reading skills.

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Odd. Not even folded and subsequently unfolded in front of the clerk?
