      Aldi had paper bags, then got paper bags with handles, the handles on theirs sucked. If you accidentally hold the bag in any direction other than straight down the glue just tears. I much prefer the normal paper bags because you don’t have the false hope that everything will be fine and find out it wasn’t.

      I will never, ever trust paper-bag handles if I’m carrying anything heavier or more fragile than a bag of chips.

      No. You’re not supposed to use them.

      They’re supposed to be shitty, so you bring your own bag (or buy a cloth one) yourself

        I mean I almost always have a reusable bag since plastic’s been banned in my city for like 10 years, but for those very rare times I forget my bag it would be really, really nice if the paper bags weren’t totally useless. I agree with your point though, just cool it worked to have both :(
