Those Walmart bags are great for my boys to use in picking up the dog poop.

I use canvas bags that you buy in the grocery stores as much as possible during regular shopping trips.

Up here in Ontario - all of our beer and liquor bottles are returnable for $$ - of course they charge you upfront - but a good way to get people to recycle - we have to return them to the state-run beer stores.....

Can't get the site to load.. But I disdain plastic bags.. When I worked retail I would try and force the customer just to carry the item without a bag.. Mainly because I would see 100's of them stuck in the bushes and fields to the north of us.. Customers would throw them away as they got to their car..

Actually this goes I guess to people that litter period.. I went ballistic on a lady for dumping her ash tray in her car out the window at a red light..

I yelled at customers too when I was off the clock and walking to my car for throwing trash/bags/receipts on the ground..

I saw some trash basically clean their car out at a red light. A giant bag of McDonalds, a couple of drinks, an ashtray, and a possible diaper.

I just about threw up.

I called the cops and gave them the plate but they told me that it would be my word against theirs. I pushed it and they gave me the "we'll look into line".

Finally got it to load.. Someone would be wise to get a government grant and start recycling that heap... maybe sell it back to recycling plants and a cheap price..

Heh, that's funny because lately on the radio here they've been running these 1-877-NO-LITTER commercials where you can call and report the license # of someone who litters. I'd really like to know what they can do, I can't imagine they can actually fine someone over it. If that's the way it works, I'm going to start reporting everybody who pisses me off when I'm driving.

Why didn't I think of that?

Free markets solve this problem nicely.

No. WalMart is for forcing people to use them.

There is a bitch at HyVee I am going to kick in the ovaries when I see her. I asked for paper. Went back to get something I had forgotten to put in the cart. I get back and everything is sacked and in the cart. When I am loading it all in the car I notice that she sacked everything in plastic and then put it in a paper bag.

**Bwana** · 09-27-2007, 03:23 PM

Damn, that's messed up.

They still look at me like I'm crazy.

Trader Joes rocks. We try and shop there as much as we can even though there's about a 100 other grocery stores much closer.

I love it when you get some milk or OJ and they put it in a plastic bag, Dude, it's got a handle right on it.

I recycle, I sniff my own farts.
