good. plastic bags are cancer

>shopping at Walmart

kek

the entire state of CA banned disposable bags not just wallmart

move to a better state

in texas their papers bags are only ten cents so I dont think you should worry

They probably sell some cheap reusable made-in-china bags for a buck there. Use that to haul your grown-in-China hamburgers and made-in-China coffee makers.

Califag here. All of our grocery stores have brown bags that you have to pay like $.50 each for unless you bring your own because muh environment.

if you pay 10cents per bag they give you thicker plastic bags now lmao

>the entire state of CA banned disposable bags not just wallmart

OKAY, 5 FUCKING NUKES

JUST KILL ME, KEK

haven't had plastic bags in my city for a few years now, you get used to it.

Isnt this exactly like the rest of the world?

>buy plastic trash bags
>throw them away

eh, even i voted for that. fuck plastic bags bro

Man, fuck that. They are going to start doing that on December here.

Honestly you are a faggot if you don't use a reusable bag already

which is bio-degradable and re usable
it's 10 cents you cuck, california has reasonable environmental laws in a lot of ways. anyone will tell you the smog in LA used to be 10x worse than it is now

The only reason people don't like reusable bags is because liberals happened to realize (for once) the value in getting a durable and reusable bag rather than expecting the store to throw money at getting literal trash to put your shit in

Anyways plastic bags are mostly made in China, paper ones are made in America and support the rural timber industry

you get used to it trust me although I still think the bag ban is a total scam by these other bag companies. I never saw bag liter of any significance and I live next to a grocery store. then the landfill argument doesnt make sense because a bag layer is thinner than a piece of paper. literally the only other reason i ever heard which is at least possible is that they clog up the recycling machines. I have strong doubts about that but no actual evidence to support it.

Who the fuck doesn't use their own bags anyway? What are you, a baby boomer?

yeah reusable bags are the shit, this is a fact. my school gives them out when i buy my books for class, so i buy 1 book at a time and get a bag each time. fuck yes.

Walmart now provides really thick plastic bags but you have to pay for it. Even my corner liquor store charges 10 cents per bag now. I live near Sacramento.

>tfw gf brought home four boxes of bags from her job
I'm set for life brehs

This. If you support plastic bags you support china you fucking commie cucks.

free trash bags for the tiny can in your toilet for life!

This is not a terrible idea t-b-h

Forgot pic

You acidently added a n't.

cali is funny it's right often on the little things and usually so fucking wrong on the big things. they had a prop here to force porn stars to wear condoms, didn't pass, prop to ban plastic bags passed, prop to BACKROUND CHECKS FOR AMMUNITION PASSED...

this place...

>Sup Forums is actually ok with this

What the fuck kind of timeline is this?

>carries around pic related
>calls other people faggots

you probably speak with a lisp too

thanks I almost forgot what a bag looked like

did you know there's a giant glob of plastic in the middle of the pacific that's larger than the state of texas?

Can't keep doing that shit mane.

I live in a city with a plastic bag ban and it's fucking annoying.

...

good, plastic bags are causing havoc in our oceans and never degrade, only thing they are good for is collecting your dogs and suffocating liberals

>get free plastic bags from grocery store
>use them as trash can liners

THE HORROR I AM SUCH A BAD PERSON

>lives in a country full of transvestites

Yeah was about to say this, California is so progressive.

Kill yourselves you fucking cucks.

These are the same faggots who call themselves "left-libertarians" most likely.

Use a reusable bag you dipshit.

Too bad paper bags suck dick.

At least we didn't fuck up & kept the death penalty

dogs shit*

yeah and less than 1% of it consists of the free plastic shopping bags in question

...Are you for real? California has had a ban on single-use plastic bags in most places since 2014. Just spend $10 on some reusable bags and they'll last you 5 years or so. Ones I got in 2010 don't even have holes in them yet. Goddamn how entitled can you millennials get?

>J9w

Not using plastic bags is little to no effort compared to a reduction of useless waste our insipid species reeks on this planet.

Quit being fucking lazy, bum. Re-use bags and quit bitching.

if they have handles they're ok which are the kind walmarts offers for ten cents

Fuck this state, I'm gone ASAP.

Thinking about Montana but even that state has blue shitholes in it now.

>not just using your own reusable bag
>wanting to willingly participate in ruining earth with shit that can't be recycled

>how entitled can you millenials get
>used to be free up until like 2006ish

btw this is the same argument that people made over vidya DLC and look how that turned out

they can absolutely be recycled but there's this supposed assertion that they have at least a possibility of clogging the machines. Again I have strong doubts although no evidence but wtf its a machine designed to recycle plastic but cant handle a bag? maybe they should redesign the machines. I still think its a bullshit cover story though for all these new bag companies that moved in.

>not using your plastic bags to make a battlearmor to use in the First Normie/Kekstian War of the Country of Pacifica (formerly CA) in 2018.
kys, it's an effective weapon against libbies

I don't rightly care.

>to save money
How much money does Walmart make annually anyway?

Grocery bags have always been about $.25 over here. Good to see America is finally catching up with us.

Bros I am conflicted, on the one hand I wouldnt mind bringing my own bag but all my global warming hating friends would make fun of me if I did. What do I do?

they are recyclable and as far as 'ruining the environment' goes i guess you think the reusable bags just manifest themselves out of thin air right onto the store shelves?

just more greenwashing feel-good shit

I'm sure you don't dumb nigger.

Nigga not getting plastic bags at walmart ain't no reason to nuke California
nuke yourself

This. Stop being a faggot.

Bring your own bags and call them a bunch of faggots for thinking using regular bags makes them any better.

Then make them suck your cock.

Grow a backbone and tell them to fuck off.

Is this a serious question?

All this did was make it even easier to steal from the self checkouts.

what if i "reuse" grocery bags for disposing of trash? garbage men stop disposing of your trash if its not bagged.

>United Nations

this triggers me

good. fascists care about the environment.

Jesus fuck, how lazy are Americans to bitch about this? We've been doing it for a while.

bags cost 5p and reusable ones 10p, so they don't break the bank anyway, what I do is buy 4-5 reusable bags and keep them in the cupboard by my front door, if I foret to take one I can just buy a cheap 5p bag and use it as a bin bag later.

Are so autistic you cant change your habits?

Honestly the whole plastic/paper bag is dumb.

It would be aesthetic af if people owned cloth grocery bags or wood crates they brought with them.

How much are your cuck sheds going for these days?

Fuck you, op. Those bags require oil for their production. The less dependent we are on oil, the better.

which will likely cause them to disappear. Quite a coincidence that my grocery store got rid of them right around the time of the bag ban. Really sucks too because among other reasons I was getting at least $10 a month from people forgetting their change.

>he uses plastic bags
Smh you fags don't even buy in bulk. I knew there were some prissy ass speds here

Because it shifts costs onto the consumer for no reason.

What's wrong with bringing your own bags? It saves money in the long run.

Retards of your ilk don't care about destroying the surrounding environment at the detriment of their neighbors.

Idiots like you would turn even the hardest conservative fascist in a second.

>Stuck in a snag? Buy a 5p plastic bag!
Fucking bongs I swear

yeah and thats exactly what the majority of the reusable bags are which actually require way more oil to produce. However they're supposedly easier to recycle because they supposedly dont clog the machines.

>use one reusable bag
>use hundreds/thousands of single use plastic bags

Is this really such a hard concept for you?

>Businesses cannot charge for their products

Fucking commies

can we finally ban those free water cups that businesses willingly give to their customers?

and even a lot of the cloth bags still incorporate plastic into the liner etc.

We recycle our plastic bags in Oregon. Is this such a hard concept for you?

its a part of the problem mane

from my experience that ratio is nowhere near accurate. Even the cloth ones would only last that long if you bought nothing but marshmallows.

>supporting asinine virtue signalling bullshit like this
>ever
Habits have nothing to do with it

The state forces or coerces them into charge for the bags you communist.

Recycling is an expensive and time consuming process, far better to just reduce the waste products.

yeah the tail end of it

priorities

Can someone explain to me how the FUCK prop 65 didn't pass when prop 67 did?

What kind of person would rather see the money go to the stores instead of some environmental project?

>forced to pay 10c by the government for what was once and should still be free
you're the gommie
they're still selling the disposable ones and creating pollution by manufacturing and disposing of them, except now there's a whole new product to be manufactured and eventually disposed of

next thing you'll be telling us how great it is to have tv licenses, you faggot

>contributing to the globalized market
fucking faggot

well thats not the reason any of the recycling companies gave here. It was all about clogging the machines.

>Be Me
>Be Texan
>Get plastic shopping bags
>Get free shopping bags
>Get extra shopping bags on request
How can Califags even compete?

Those bags are made using oil. Anything that cuts our dependence off of oil and the Middle East is good.

I think I've only had one fail on me,and it was when I used it to try and carry two gallons of sand.

What are you doing to your bags, user?
