One or two countries in Europe have banned them already. It will happen in a couple of years here too. I have nylon re-useable bags, but I seem to forget them, even when I have them in the car.

Fade even though I have been out here in MI for 5 yrs now and I still think of the grocery store as "Kings Soopers"
They are owned by Krogers, which is a big chain out here, none in my town though.
Funny Huh?

I have cloth bags that I use when I remember them. They hold about 3 times the stuff that plastic bags hold and our stores give a 3 - 5 cent discount per bag for using them. Problem is, I keep forgetting them ohwell

Krogers left St. Louis left St. Louis at least 10 years ago. I was surprised to see Krogers in Louisville, KY, a few weeks ago.

Stores charge for bags?!noway
Not all of them. The two up the street do though. AND they charge tax on top of it.


No kidding. Wow.

And Gypsy's store has her bagging her own. Wow.
The stores that we have to buy them at here, we have to bag our own as well.


Doesn't that make things more difficult for the elderly and disabled?

At the local Meijers if you go through the self scan, you have to bag your own. And about 1/3 are are self scan in this store. Oleson's have a few self scan lanes.
Elderly and disabled can go with the regular checkers, and get their stuff bagged.
