I feel like if you forget to bring a recycled bag to Safeway, they passive aggressively punish you by over-loading a paper bag far beyond it's breaking point. At minimum that sucker has no chance of not toppling over on the way home.
And it RGMG.

I had a boss that took all of the office staff to 'Taste of China' every few weeks, he was a bigger guy and he would shame people into 'getting his money's worth.'
Now that was miserable.
lol my wife's boss took the team to the Ginger Beef buffet in Brentwood Mall to celebrate, because it was the cheapest thing she could do.

Yeah, end of Tax Season we'd be at Caesar's, but just 'any old day' he loved that Chinese Buffet.
And hey, I like Chinese food as much as the next guy, I mean, to be clear...not 'real' Chinese food...that seems like awful stuff, I mean the bastardized slop they feed us idiots over here which is probably part of some sort of conspiracy.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.

When I forget my bags I just load the items back into the cart and unload it into some clever crates I keep in the back of the truck..
I recall the stories about Foody Goody's using baby mice for shrimp. Not that I believe them but considering the place would get shut down by health inspectors here and there it's just not a place I would frequent.

I always tell them I don't care how many bags it takes, I am will to pay the extra. It is cheap Karens who are worried about 10 cents who give cashiers a hard time for underloading bags who are to blame.

I only hit Safeway when I'm running other errands or closeby, never make a trip just to shop. I already have 10 of those black reusable bags at home and never remeber to bring them.
The best was when I hit Lowes, I bought about 14 small items, packages of screws etc. They didn't have bags or even a box, I had to fill my pockets then carry everything precariously in my hands.
Only thing that has changed is now I buy plastic garbage bags for my actual garbage.

Haha yeah the continuing baby steps of trying to make it look like they're saving the environment.
Another new one I've noticed is the tiny little plastic tab / clip thing on loaves of bread is now cardboard. Glad they made that change to hold a plastic bag closed...

The paper bags are the worst of the alternatives offered.
Our closest grocery store is a Safeway and I'm within 100m of another at least twice a day, every day of the week during kids activities and yet I haven't bought more than jug of milk there since they introduced the paper bags; if I can't carry it in one hand, I'm getting it elsewhere... Instead, I drive to Coop or Sunterra for more items.
I guess the real gear grinder is why am I so petty and inconveniencing myself like this?
