Plastic bags are the worst. Hate ‘em.

TNT likes bags

I'm OK with that.

It's only like a dime so I don't care that much, plus now they actually fill

They’re outlawed where I live

Me too. No plastic. Paper is 5 cents per. A lot of people just buy $1 worth

Seems like California is one giant government-led MLM

The only way for the "ban" to work is to stop manufacturing plastic bags, right?

The ones you have to pay for are great for repurposing

And the stupid paper straws. Worthless. Might as well not have a straw.

Ugh, they've started using those at Disneyland. Hate them.

Paper straws are worse for the environment

There are mountains of data showing these thing do nothing, yet they keep doing

TNT's rain gear cost just went up, bummer.

They are worth all 10 cents. Very thick and durable..

This actually works. It's only $0.1, but I found myself severely cutting its use

Gotta echo this. I switched to reusable because of the additional charges.

7/16/19 11:19am

And now you're doing more harm to the earth

Why?

I'm way past 100 uses with the bags in the back of my car. The bags are burlap btw.

Great article(s) on NPR about the costs of various bags--answer: no one solution

It works to cut grocery bag use, but does it work to save the envirnoment?

Skipshot

In the case of our family of five, we do reuse some of our plastic shopping bags

Kandy

We stopped using bags unless absolutely necessary, period.

Or just get these

There is plenty of proof these laws do more damage than good
