Annoying Morons at the Supermarket


Yes .. this is going to be a little rant. I am SO annoyed at people at Supermarkets who STILL don't get that plastic bags are BAD and that we should NOT use them! I stood behind a lady the other day who had EVERY item possible in a plastic bag - even the already wrapped items such as watermelon were also in another plastic bag - she actually could not have used more bags if she tried. Not only was I horrified at her stupidity, I was also quite depressed and I looked around and people everywhere were merrily using the plastic bags.



There is more as I observing her plastic I noticed that she was a mother from kindy and she is my age! She has no excuse for being old and set in her ways .... what was she thinking?



Ok I have had days when I'm in a rush and I've left the green shopping bags behind and have sheepishly shopped and scurried away with my plastic bags - which of course I re-use at home. We all have those days. Because I know I am busy and a total scatter brain I have two sets of bags one at home and one in the car.



So what do the people who are still using plastic bags think as they shop?



Anyway http://www.solutionliving.com.au/ is now stocking a brilliant inventio to bansih the plastic bags people use to weigh their fruit and veg. These clever bags weigh nothing, and a little bag of four clips on to your normal shopping bags. The Onya Weigh bag is a must for those of us who do actually THINK at the check out.
