you know what companies were for this new ban?

the sit-down restaurants

that hated the fastfood/food truck places that were competing with them

the sit-down restaurants already have ceramic plates and metal utensils, so it doesnt affect them. fucking croynism

like read that shit bro, its insane lol

i bet the 2 big grocery chains here love the new laws they get to charge 15c for the big bags

it's great for them they don't have to write off all the plastic bags now and claim they're helping the environment

the shame is they didn't bother to bring in those big bags and the canvas ones that roll up until the regulations came in

I would have bought the new bags anyway they're better it just sucks I had no choice

out here they charge us, but we dont get the sturdy new plastic bags, its the same old PAPER bags, but we just have to pay.

oof

yea like wtf

the old style ones would come in handy for stuff like leaky bottles and carrying meat but they're gone now

ah dude the thin plastic bags were great lol

and they were thin enough that they would degrade

stick those things out in the sun and they fall apart

and when you got home they were great for garbage

but these new thicker plastic bags, they will outlive humanity hahja

now I just throw all the 15c ones in the bag bag so every garbage is 15c now

lol

that's true it'll take them a good while to break down even with our conditions

exactly. and the paper ones essentially petrify

so even they suck

i bought a bottle of milk once put it in one of the thin bags, two steps away from the register it broke and my milk went every where :D
options are great I would paid 15c then for a big bag

oh dude options are the best. youre stroking the libertarian in me lol

eeewww

shh shhh. just go with it

shhhhh

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

great that was disturbing you turned me into a socialist

hahahah!
