An unused dog poo bag, because I'm not some sort of animal.
On this - the third day of the government's new tax on single-use plastic bags from supermarkets - I have made a substantial saving of five new pence.
I'd treat myself to something utterly luxurious, but even penny chews are probably 10p each these days.
A new low indeed.
Get some reusable bags. Keep some in your car and one in your desk at work. Sometimes you can find some that fold up nicely into a little package. Don't forget to wash them periodically.
ReplyDeleteThey tried to pass a similar tax here. They got half way there, the convenience stores don't even have plastic bags any more. They are allowed paper bags but I hate them so I grab a reusable bag now.
First World Problems. Aaaaaaargh! Hellllllllllp!
ReplyDeleteA coast pocket? Is that some sort of Cornish cove?
ReplyDeleteOur local Tesco was giving away 'Bags for life' a few days ago...
ReplyDeleteSince charging people for plastic bags will lead immediately to the collapse of civilisation and four blokes on horseback making a bloody nuisance of themselves I am curious as to how this has totally failed to happen in for .e.g. Wales.
ReplyDeleteI hope you hung your shopping inna hedge with all the other dog poos.
