I've always done this as it just seems sensible. Unfortunately a lot of people can't cope with this not sure if they are too lazy to bother, too stupid to think about it or just plain thoughtless. Other reasons are probably available.Why not re use your bags and saves bit of plastic going into landfill?0 -
I do reuse my bags but if I find myself at a shop without them, for whatever reason, I'm not going to worry about 10p.0

Done my first bit of food shopping since the charge came in. Went to the self service till and selected using my own bags but used one of theirs, when the question of how many bags have I used I entered zero. There are ways round it.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

You have to scan the bags in sainsburys. If I don't scan one will it set the alarm off as I leave the shop?Done my first bit of food shopping since the charge came in.

I don't want to end up in a bloody shoot out "You'll never take me alive!" over a plastic bag.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -

Tesco express in Wycombe must have cottoned on to people not paying for bags on the self service checkout and put them all behind the till. You had to buy a bag at a manned checkout before using the self service. It was actually pretty good for a couple of items because no one was using them.0

Some are, or at least were. A while ago I opened the drawer of my desk at work and found it full of mysterious blue and white flakes. It took me a few seconds to realise it had once been a Tesco carrier bag. I used another to store some spare tubes in the garage and managed to swap that one before it too fell apart.What would be more appropriate is to ensure that the bags were 100% biodegradable.
But this is as much about money.
Someone posted a nice picture on FB yesterday, noting that the cupboard next to his kitchen sink was now worth hundreds of pounds. 0 -

It's amazing really. In Wales (and the other nations) people are honest and get on with it. Perhaps the English are more dishonest and/or have a greater sense of entitlement? (inserts winkey smiley)My blog: http://www.roubaixcycling.cc (kit reviews and other musings)
