Sounds pretty inconvenient. But reading the stories about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and you kind of understand where they're coming from. |
Well in some provinces in Canada they charge you a few cents for each bag and don't even offer paper ones. Idiotic really. Though I remember when I moved to British Columbia a few years ago and bought over $300 in groceries, and they said that will be 3 pennies per bag. I said, "Never mind the bags" Then they said they only accept a credit card from them (Superstore). I was ready to abandon my selections of groceries but the manager made an "acception on the policy" and let me use my VISA.
Mind you to see, I never shopped there again after that PITA.
