      In France they didn’t always have bags available, and if they did they were usually for sale and were reusable. Everyone just brought their own bags.

      Canada works pretty well without them. If you forget your bags though you have to buy more.

        I keep several reusable bags and I’ve almost never had to use the paper ones. The few times I have, the bags fell apart halfway home lol.

      The best places keep a pile of all of their cardboard boxes by the registers, so you can grab one or two or ten depending on how much you’re buying. I only get paper bags if they’re out of boxes or I need more trash bags.
