Walmart, Wegmans, and Other Grocery Stores Are Getting Rid of This

[Guno צְבִי]

The list of grocery chains that are joining this ban continues to grow.

grocery shopping has changed drastically in the last two years. The popularity of grocery delivery has taken off and shortages are, unfortunately, still a dime a dozen. Yet, there is another big update some chains like Walmart, Target, and others are making right now that will change your shopping experience.

Wegmans, the regional grocery chain that operates in seven states (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland, Massachusetts, North Carolina, and New York), just announced it's ending the use of plastic bags companywide by the end of this year.

Good. The only time we've had to use them in years was during the pandemic when they refused to let us have our reusable, washable bags.

Where I am they get around the bans and promises by using thicker plastic in the bags, making them more potentially reusable, and then charging 8 cents each. From an environmental angle we are going in reverse, and the virtue signalling is so clearly a charade.....which everyone understands.

I use my own bags which do not rip under weight. It is a win/win.

Vertue signaling: displaying morals


How fucking stupid is your party that you think you can convince people that acting morally is a BAD THING



You people are fucking evil

I wish everyone would let me bag my own


They always want to insist on doing it

They often have no idea how to actually bag properly

Walmart is going cashierless. One store in the Mid-Cities has already done this by totally self-checkout. Two others I've been to have two areas of self-checkout with a center section of cashiers.
