They drive me crazy. They do. I hate them. They are going to be lying around the planet far longer than we are. They are messy and nasty and such a huge waste of resources.
Anyhoo, I started to decline carriers about 2 months ago. People have looked at me like I was about to slap them in the face. One lady working in a very large department store in the Metro Centre actually started to argue with me that the security guards might think I had stolen goods in my bag!! ( I thought that receipts were proof of purchase enough. Silly me!!)
So now I just explain that I don't do carrier bags. And where ever possible I don't. There have been a number of teething problems; the number of times we have a trolley full of shopping at the check out and husband has to leg it out to the car to get the bags out of the boot is comical. But we are getting better at remembering.
