    I’d proudly and, like a snob, tell you that I’ve ascended beyond plastic bags by using reusable nets.

    But I also keep forgetting the nets at home, so I use the plastic bags and promise myself not to forget. Only to forget again. FUCK.

      You remember while walking out of the front door, but tell yourself it’s too much effort to go back and get them, only to regret forgetting them and not going back for them while it was easy right?

      You’re paying for the weight of that net at the register though, not much at once but it adds up.

        Interesting, our supermarket has a provision for that, but I also weigh just the stuff without net, before packing it. So at least that’s working okay for me

      Actually we mostly use paper bags in our stores now, because they’re in a well integrated system where they can get recycled into something else.

      That said, nets are a good idea which works every time you bring them. Which isn’t often.
