I was in Poundland
and 99p Stores


Both have young staff
You say "No Bag"
they still bag it
so you then say Louder "No Bag"

They then take it out the bag
sure they are more busy these days,

So I think we may as well have Robots serving
you push a green tab for bag
and a red tab for no bag

Humans will be the Security staff.
And remove children that that think the tabs are a game

In those 2 shops they do not
ask they just bag it.


They weight of those 8packs (10 of them)
break their weak bags.

I have my own stronger bag

[Mystic Mock]

Just bag it and gag it Arista.

[Josy]

We don't need more machines Arista fgs

The self service checkouts are horrendous

'Please place the item in the bagging area' 'Place the item back in the bagging area'

**** off.

Get rid of all the pointless machines and create more jobs for humans again.

Better to take your own cloth shopping bags. That way there is less plastic in the environment.

[MTVN]

Good for Poundland, too many places try to mug you off these days either by making you pay for a bag or by treating you like scum when you do want one

What about if they double bag them?

[Crimson Dynamo]

The problem is you cannot expect a man to carry a plastic bag or a good sized bag for life around as we do not have handbags so really this is just a 5p tax on men. Men should get free bags and it should be 10p for a woman as no woman should be walking around without plastic bags in their handbags

[user104658]

It's the opposite problem up here since the 5p bag charge came into effect. If you don't happen to have a stash of carrier bags in your pocket then you have to point out to them that you would like one, or else they just stand there staring at you, like they expect you to just bundle the 20 items you've bought under your arms and go.

What if the woman doesnt want to carry a handbag though

[T*]

I'm the opposite, I hate when they don't give you bags, how do you expect me to carry it, pile it all up in my arms?
Speaking of M&S, i hate how they charge you 5p for a regular sized bag but i normally use the self serve tills and pick the 'M&S to go' bags which are free and take one of the regular bags. #rebel

They drive me crazy Josy, I really hate them. When you think about it, using them means we the customers are doing the job staff should be but not getting paid to do so too.

we have to pay for bags here, the ones in the supermarket I go to cost 70c so i bring my own when i remember

Yes we are slowly going that way


But Poundland and 99p
are Very Busy

I say No Bag

even the euro saver shops here (equivalent of your poundland shops) charge for bags, they sell those cloth bags though for 50c (which is better value than the supermarkets)

"Unidentified item in the bagging area!"

Then you look around and people are staring as though you're trying to pull a fast one.

[Niamh.]

I like scanning my own stuff though, it's fun

Yes we are behind

The managers give the 10 or 12 staff
thousands of thin bags
he wants the money from customers



Meanwhile Poundland CEO
is trying to buyout 99p stores


So sadly some stores will go as many
are near each other
which is great for us customers

It does annoy me when i say no bag, but the bag it anyway.
