Paper or Plastic? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

At the grocery store, which do you prefer? They don't even ask too much these days and just use plastic. I can't stand plastic. If I have a really large order, I ask for both. Pain in the neck me.

I prefer paper, but I usually get plastic.

MandieR1980 · 10-25-2004, 01:10 AM

where I go they don't even ask but we always like plastic

spunkygirl · 10-25-2004, 02:27 AM

Plastic cause you can carry alot more

They give us paper for bread, donuts and stuff like that

I don't even think they have paper bags at my local Food Emporium. I'll have to look when I go food shopping after work.

Kay Scarpetta · 10-25-2004, 07:06 AM

My mother always asks for both, sometimes I just ask for plastic if it's a very small order. My kitty likes the paper bags to play in.

Im one of those annoying customers who brings her own canvas bags and freezer bags. When those are filled up, paper in plastic.

As for baggers always giving you plastic, when I worked in Plaistow you automatically got plastic unless the customer specified they wanted paper. Up here though, we have to ask if plastic is ok. Took me a few months to get used to asking.

I like plastic because it's easier to carry.

*MIBabe03* · 10-25-2004, 01:12 PM

Plastic, if I have my daughter with me on the bike. Paper, if I don't. Because one paper sack fits perfectly into her little bike seat.

EricIdlefan · 10-25-2004, 01:43 PM

It usually depends on how much grocery shopping I do. Usually when there is a lot I get paper and plastic in-between but for little things, plastic mainly!
