Does this ban include all plastic bags?
I don’t think so; here in neighboring NJ where a ban is widely anticipated, I had my purchases bagged in a sturdy plastic bag clearly labeled “re-usable”, and says it is good for 125 uses...
Happy to see big business figured a way around this nonsense.
The bag applies to all biz that collects sales tax. The only exceptions are bags for meds, meat, produce.
The bag tax is not in effect in all counties, but in counties it’s not in foce, some biz are charging anyway. One biz I’m familiar with is making charitable donations with the money, so they likely get a tax deduction with money taken from consumers.
BTW, not everyone gets charged the bag tax. EBT card users, for example, don’t have to pay.
Yea aren’t plastic garbage bags single use?
Just throw all of your trash (often wrapped in plastic) out onto the street.
