You are an incredible fool. Don't you see the evidence for global warming all around you? Melting glaciers, hottest years on record, australia and california on fire?

I like reusable bags and I try to remember to wash mine. I've certainly been more mindful of that now.

Of course, contamination is the priority now and I understand that most people don't think to wash theirs, at least not enough. But biodegradable plastic or recycled paper are better options.

plastic bags are disgusting. you find them all over parks and waterways.

I always bag my own stuff at the grocery, using my own reusable bags. Much faster and more efficient.

Might as well not bother paying for the items in your cart either...just scan one or two items and bag the rest of your stolen items in your stolen bags. Toss the bags in a river when finished so you do not have to worry about them again.

I'm fine with paying 5 cents a bag. I can let them sit a few days and then use them for something else. Come on people.

I don't have a problem with that, OP. You should be disinfecting bag handles anyway, so it changes nothing regarding Covid-19. The rest decontaminates when it sits there for 2-3 days, as you've been told to do.

No bag tax? Ok, I’ll use your sh!tty plastic bags, as long as they’re free.

Just do self check out and hit one bag when it asks how many bags you used. Then double bag and use what you need. The bags at Safeway fall apart anyway, I feel no guilt after having a few break in the parking lot. And screw MoCo.
