[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine is similar -- I've brought my own shopping bag into stores, strolled around putting a few groceries in it, and then gone to the checkout and emptied it onto the conveyor belt. Just to avoid dragging around a basket. Pure white privilege. I've stopped doing it.[/quote] I do that too and I am asian[/quote] I do it too, though I'm half white, half Asian (I look "ethnicy"). But I don't do this nonchalantly - I am showy about scrunching up my bag after emptying it, or holding it upside down, to point out "see my bag is totally empty, I've taken nothing." [/quote] I stopped doing this because a checker at Trader Joe’s told me it’s really annoying! It takes them longer when they have to un-bag all your groceries and then re-bag them. If you use a basket, your stuff goes straight from the basket to your bag. After he told me it was annoying, I stopped.[/quote]
