I found that since I've got a bag that folds in my purse I am more likely to have it with me. <br />SkipTheBaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02426786864856395559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882959808811184859.post-12590505106794945612017-03-03T06:25:48.830-06:002017-03-03T06:25:48.830-06:00I wouldn't mind the ban as I have several bags...I wouldn't mind the ban as I have several bags I take to the farmer's market and Aldi supermarket.

I wouldn't mind, but they started charging for paper bags! I have several cloth bags and even several produce bags, but often forget to take them in with me, and then they ask if I want a bag, and ...you guessed it, I have to carry an armful of items out by hand! This isn't just for grocery stores, it is for ALL stores! Since it is only one city and there are others close by, I tend to forget when shopping and find myself in the plastic ban city. I DO hate plastic bags, and really wish they had never been invented, but feel that charging for the paper is unfair since they didn't charge for them before the ban.<br />Carol L.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882959808811184859.post-75124985178427829302017-03-01T17:51:37.112-06:002017-03-01T17:51:37.112-06:00It can seem intimidating at first, but it's re...It can seem intimidating at first, but it's really not hard.
