Some stores only carry paper bags (that you have to pay for) and some still have plastic (that you have to pay for).

T'is true. Some other stores like Target and Best Buy don't give bags either.
And some clothing stores have started carrying only ginormous bags so if you just bought a couple items, it wouldn't make sense to take one. The bag ban is not in every Cali city but it's spreading. I was raised to repurpose all bags, paper or plastic, so the ban doesn't feel fair to me. I use most of my bags several times before throwing them away or recycling them but I know the decision to ban isn't based on the habits of those who diligently repurpose/recycle.
