It’s the way I’m treated because I refuse to become a slave to reusable bags. The question used to be “Plastic or paper?” It indicated I, the consumer, had a choice and the retailer we there to serve me by giving me whichever I preferred. Now I’m frowned upon, “You didn’t bring your bags with you today?” I feel like the kid who forgot her homework! The scorn of “You don’t have your own bags?” is so great that I’m going out of my way to shop in cities who have not yet adopted these pointless bans.
