      Some cities only have a ban on free plastic bags. One can still take their purchases home in a plastic bag if they refuse to try carrying their own bags, but they must buy the bags.

      Some cities were able to move on from this semi-ban to a full ban on plastic bags. But the semi-ban can still be very very contentious to get enacted.

        I get lastic because I pay either way but plastic is more reusable than paper.

        I’m finally getting into the habit of bringing bags to the store, although I recently accidentally recycled them so now I have to buy more
