Its funny - I do bring bags, but often I get more than one or two items. Aka I'll often get more than planned, as I look for sales.
Regardless, and to the point the whole line is slowed down by this transaction. Meaning every time I went to the store I had to wait an extra few minutes for this.
Moving back to Illinois recently, I find it amazing that the lines most move at least 3× faster. Probably in part due to the more "let's get shit done" attitude of the Midwest, but also the lack of bag related questions.
I then come home with my paper bags and recycle them. It honestly seems like more harm to the environment the waste of time + the polyester bags we buy instead
