I saw this recently...
“Let me get this straight. I go to the grocery store and buy a lb of ham wrapped in plastic, a loaf of bread in a plastic bag, a gallon of milk in a plastic jug, a pack of napkins wrapped in plastic, a Greek salad in a plastic container, a plastic bottle of ketchup and a plastic bottle of mustard, and they won’t give me a plastic bag to carry it home in because the plastic bag is bad for the environment?”

Grow a set. Apparently you see yourself as one of the morons in NJ.

Our local Shot Rite has a large sign visual from 1/2 a parking lot away. "Don't forget to bring in your bags" Even with this sign you see people half way into the store, curse and head back to their cars. I had to laugh when one guy said on loud, " Damn you Murphy."

Another thing I've noticed is people walking out with the store owned individual container. Sure more expensive then a 15 cent plastic bag.

Grocery bags, left unused and folded up for even a few days, become excellent roach and mouse havens!
