When you go to a store and they charge you for the plastic bag. What is that retarded shit about? Yea it's not expensive but Jesus fuck why do they nickel and dime you at every turn? Though I wouldn't be surprised if this was so they could pay the fee for the "allowing customers to carry their groceries" license or some shit.
But the worst is that they make you bag your own fucking stuff! That's some Somalia 3rd world level shit. The first time I tried buying food, I just stood there looking at the cashier, trying to figure out why this lazy cunt wasn't bagging my stuff. Even nig nogs that work at Walmart can scan and bag at the same time, Jesus.
Some places will bag for you, it's just not a universal thing. Most bongs bring their own bags for food shopping now in my experience.

Go to bed Kimmo
Bentley Cook
>Some places will bag for you, it's just not a universal thing Thats a little better I think, but I've yet to see it. With the exception of Tesco Express, there wasn't room to have the bagging station on the customer side.
>bring their own bag That just seems like such an ass pain
Jace Butler
>Kimmo Uh who
Lucas Bailey
Didn't California invent the "charging for plastic bags" meme?
Bentley Butler
It varies by store brother. Some store will pack your groceries and won't charge you for plastic bags.
God Bless
Austin Miller
>charging for plastic bags Idk who did it first, but I'm sure they do it too.
Carter Martin
Literally Kimmo: the thread
Christopher Edwards
Why should someone making minimum wage have to do everything for you? Have some decency and sort your own shit out.
It's to encourage people to use quality bags that can be reused and don't break, which is ultimately cheaper for you and better for the environment in the long term.
Typical lazy burger.
Jaxon Morgan
>It's to encourage people to use quality bags that can be reused and don't break, which is ultimately cheaper for you and better for the environment in the long term. Yea I know why they do it, that's what pisses me off so much. I'll drive around in a hummer getting 1 mpg, eating a big Mac out of the cardboard box and drink out of a Styrofoam cup, and throw it all out the window when I'm done if i feel like it.
Cooper Reed
Yes. Same deal in Cambridge, Ma.
Ian Harris
Aldis does it in my city, only store that does it. Also charge you to use shopping carts kek.
Angel Clark
i generally bag customers stuff when im serving on the till but thats just because they take so fucking long to clear off otherwise
Ryder Campbell
Then go home, literally no one cares. You're just boring.
Isaac Allen
>Also charge you to use shopping carts kek. Oh fuck I forgot about that. I almost took a shit right there the first time I saw that. How fucking Jewish can you be? Really.
Tyler Stewart
Oh shit up bag boys job employ more people and they make bank in tips, at least the ones at commissary on base.
Anthony Hernandez
>Also charge you to use shopping carts kek DEVILISH
Noah Roberts
I know kek, there isn't even environmental excuse for that retarded shit.
Bentley Nguyen
british people dont tip
Adam Wood
Yea see that makes sense. Why is it not that way everywhere
Gavin Hill
Oh that's right, I forgot tipping is mostly here in America
Jason Hill
most people that work in supermarkets or corner shops are lazy low work ethic untermensch
Aaron Perry
the only exceptions are hotel workers and waitresses generally
Connor Brooks
Fair enough, though you'd think managers would make it a requirement to keep lines moving
Jackson Sullivan
Welcome to Europe Burgi.
In Germoney bags are not allowed to be free of cvharge by law
Owen James
I hate it how the sales tax isn't included in the price in burgerland.
Jacob Campbell
Its for the environment you faggot. Just reuse a bag you bought once its not that hard.
Eli Wright
>hotel workers Wut
Isaac Sanchez
Go to Waitrose
Ethan Cook
You fucking retard. You are not being charged to use a trolly. Put a pound coin in the trolley and it will be released from the one in front so you can use it. Then when you finish return the trolley, click it into the trolley in front and you get your pound back. It stops lazy cunts leaving trolleys all over the car park like they would in a 3rd world country. How did you not work this simple thing out for yourself?
Anthony Diaz
I've wondered about this too, I think it's because sales tax varies by state. Also, fuck this 20% shit.
Asher Anderson
meh, most of the time my manager seems apathetic, i only go as fast as i can so i can finish my other jobs and have time to stand about chatting shit
Matthew Hernandez
They are supposed to offer help in packing. We are different here though, plenty of people don't want others packing thier bags, its almost intrusive to us. especially those who like specfic things in specific bags.
William Smith
>Its for the environment you faggot I literally stop giving a shit about the environment the second it's inconvenient
Matthew Mitchell
How much is vat in your home state?
Lucas Martinez
>How did you not work this simple thing out for yourself Well I never tried because normally I don't carry the dumb fucking coins around
Wyatt Gray
8.25%
Jason Ward
i take it you're an ugly incel that works at a hotel and gets no tips, my missus works at a premier inn part time and brings back at least £30 extra each week
Logan Jackson
>intrusive to us. That's odd. Weird little cultural differences like that all over
Easton Campbell
I line my rubbish bin with my shopping bags. When you force me to use these cuck reusable bags, I have to go buy plastic rubbish bags anyway. There is no let change in plastic waste, except now the supermarket is making money off of selling me plastic bags.
Jack Barnes
>meh, most of the time my manager seems apathetic Think this is related to the slightly more socialist attitude here?
Tyler Scott
>making you bag your own groceries I was also taken aback by this during my visit to the UK. It was also weird that most of the cashiers were white.
Ryder Brooks
>my missus works at a premier inn part time and brings back at least £30 extra each week For what? I've never heard of tipping hotel people
Ian Butler
>was also weird that most of the cashiers were white Lmao I thought so too. White people in minimum wage jobs is odd
Liam Powell
You have to go back.
The plastic bag tax is literally the single best legacy of Cameron's govt and you shouldn't be so fucking entitled to expect people to pack your bags for you.
Hope this helps :)
Jaxson Turner
Its a side effect of nations with mostly white people im told.
Angel Foster
post more bout what you hate bout living in uk
Caleb Sanchez
it's a pain in the ass at first but when you realise you're better off having decent bags for shopping anyway.
Also it means you can look condescendingly at other countries when the news does the 'save the turtles' piece again.
Levi James
What're you all retarded? It's a quarter and you get a quarter back once you lock the cart back up.
And if you are too much of a dipshit to bring your own sacks too, there are boxes LITERALLY EVERYWHERE in there they let you take! You's have to be a complete moron to have to buy a bag off them!
On the other hand, I would gladly let them keep the quarter and bag money when they are saving me almost half price on most groceries regularly.
Gabriel Hernandez
Now I'm sad
Christian Lopez
why are the plastic bags you have to buy thicker than the ones that were free?
I thought we were "saving the planet"
Logan White
Jeez we really are getting fucked over
Austin Baker
>post more bout what you hate bout living in uk Kek I plan to, but not all at once, Vol 4 will be next
Luis Powell
>me almost half price on most groceries regularly Food here is kind of expensive. 50 pounds doesn't even get me through the week.
Alexander Jenkins
Yea. It's bananas
Owen Morales
Also that.
Michael Gutierrez
>Also it means you can look condescendingly at other countries when the news does the 'save the turtles' piece again. Ayyyy lmao.
James Bailey
>even nig nogs that work at walmart can scan and bag at the same time, Jesus.
that doesn’t mean that niggers are actually good at working and aren’t lazy at work. walmart is ass now since all the niggers work there.
Nicholas Mitchell
Dont be, its really because if You'r a lazy cunt here there is literally no reason or incentive to actually work.
Jace Richardson
>they charge you for the plastic bag The EU levies taxes on packaging that gets used once and then thrown away. That's why in an environmentally aware country like in Germany, people bring their own bags. Or they purchase reusable clothe bags for $2.
You are given notice in advance that bags will cost you. It's not like in other countries, where you walk up to the cash register, and then, SURPRISE!, they slap an additional "tax" on the prices they marked up. The whole US system is a total ripoff for customers.
Jaxson Davis
>walmart is ass now since all the niggers work there. True, but they at least bag stuff
Sebastian Gomez
The thicker ones are biodegradable
Daniel Morales
...
Juan Morgan
I've also suspected that had something to do with it.
Matthew Kelly
Nice timing
Sebastian Morgan
>Or they purchase reusable clothe bags for $2. Lol that's fucking criminal
James Sanders
>plastic bags >biodegradable literally all this means is they break apart into little pieces. it's still fucking plastic and terrible for the environment.
Jackson Parker
Then give me free paper ones, I don't care
Josiah Anderson
bar and waiting work, sometimes reception
Jayden Adams
Yanks are fucked on this. Buy 1 bag for 5p that will end up as a rubbish bag...Or spend £1 on a heavy duty bag that will last over a year. If that bag breaks they will replace it in store where you got it from. Thats why its called "bag for life". Shopping carts dont cost £1. you just need a object of the same size to fit in the cart. Most places sell these for £1 which fits on your keys and depending where you go to buy the "cart coins" the money is donated to charity. My experience with all shops ive been in always state "would you like help with your packing?" Before they start scanning. Im just not a lazy fat fuck who cant pick up a tin of beans twice in a day without moaning. Would you like it if a guy came into your work and made your job harder? (If you even work yank fag) You gonna ask em to make you the fucking sandwhich with the bread, butter and ham you just got too? Cook it for me bitch. Grow up
Julian Thomas
ive had enthusiastic managers, but to be honest everyone just thinks you're a cunt if you dont have a general malaise about you, i quite like my manager, i take him to be the type that would browse pol > hi boss
Jaxon Lewis
>bar and waiting work Those make sense, reception less so
Sebastian Campbell
>having such a capitalist attitude
whats wrong with being a productive member of society cuckistani
Carter Hughes
Idk man, everything I read on his post was pretty interesting. How can he pay for gas? Is he rich af? Where do you even find a styrofoam cup? Don't think I've seen one of those in 10 years.
I must know him. Who is this fascinating user?
Levi Thomas
>Would you like it if a guy came into your work and made your job harder? >what if someone made you do you're whole job instead of slack off? How horrible of them

Did you just figure out how to use the carts at them mal? God anglos are retarded
Kevin Morgan
i think to be honest its just not a part of bong culture to have things done for you, a marketing trick is to make people feel like theyre doing what everyone else is doing, you only see infirms and old people getting their shopping packed and naturally dont want to identify as one of them
Alexander Hall
>charge for a plastic bag Do they seriously do this?
Jaxson Adams
Capitalist is buying 5p bags each time you shop. How is a £1 bag that lasts and also will be replaced for free capitalist? Wouldnt they only offer 5p bags that cant be replaced for free capitalist?
Isaac Rodriguez
Yes, everywhere
Jackson Sanders
>Did you just figure out how to use the carts at them mal? What
Samuel Lee
You do know in the uk its rather rare the cashier packs your bags unless its a express or local shop. The cashier calls for a floor hand. So when you have to wait for a item to be restocked you can blame the twat that refused to pack their own bags instead of moaning at a cashier
Angel Brown
>i think to be honest its just not a part of bong culture to have things done for you, a Interesting. Wonder where that comes from. In the US, getting stuff done for you is more likely to be associated with stature or importance
Cooper Edwards
Why can’t they just provide paper bags instead of plastic ?

Pretty sure we have the dubious honor of highest taxes in EU
Brandon James
Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces While handicapped people make handicapped faces!!!!!
Jordan Ross
Aldi makes you put a quarter in the cart so that you return it. The fact that you have to police your own cart, bag your own groceries, and b.y.o.b. keeps the niggers out of the store. A price worth paying if you ask me.
Asher Green
Kek thanks for the vote of confidence.
This guy got it
