They charged you in CLOTHING stores? I thought this was just for grocery bags. For clothing stores to not give you a bag is uber bad marketing.

If it's already working there, why do they need to make it a law?

I also thought it was just grocery bags. Doing the same thing at clothing stores is ridiculous.

I should say in Los Angeles. We had the change about 6 months ago.

Meh, you get used to it. In San Francisco, we just carry bags with us. The only time these days I pay the 10 cents is when I buy something at Lululemon where the bag is reusable anyway.

I was in Fresno for work this past week and they're still using styrofoam food containers. Ugh.

We always saved the heavier weight bags with drawstrings we got at shoe stores and such. At least if this comes here I'll have a myriad of bags to put things in.
