No paper bags?

[Android Kaeli]

Not too long ago I went to Wally World to pick up a few things after work, 'cause I was almost out of a few food stuffs. I paid for my stuffs, then moved down a little bit to put the rest of my bags into my cart and get my keys/sunglasses out to leave. I didn't leave fast enough for the guy behind me.


SC: Put everything into paper bags. *puts everything onto belt*
Cashier: We don't have paper bags.
SC: Sure you do, I've always gotten paper bags here.
Cashier: Sir, we don't have paper bags.
SC: *glares* Then I don't want anything. *turns to me* I can't believe they won't let me have paper bags.
Me: I've been coming to this Wally World for seven years, they've never had paper bags. If you want paper bags, bring in your own.

I left before he could say anything else.

He cares so much about not getting a stupid paper bag that he's willing to waste his whole shopping over it? WTF!? That guy had some screwed up priorities.

And apparently waaaaay too much free time on his hands.

See, I believe a lot of people actually know that a store does not carry x item, but they just want to make waves and see what happens.

I've never seen paper bags at the EES.

Former NM informed me that some WMs do, in fact, have paper bags.

Which blew my mind because once upon a time I worked at the EES and never saw a paper bag, nor do I see them now when I shop there.

That reminds me of a story. Back in the early days of stores here in the land of leprechauns and Guinness charging for plastic bags, I had a middle-aged couple walk out of the store I worked in, leaving several hundred Euro worth of already-scanned groceries behind. Because I had the audacity to charge them for bags.

Of course all the signs instore informing customers of this charge and the law by which it was required went ignored by them as they went about their shopping.
