I find it hilarious that all my English friends on FB and people on here are getting so so worked up about bag charges.

Up in Scotland we have had this for what feels like forever now. Its really simple either pay 5p for single use bags or buy 10p 'bags for life' and reuse them. We always take some with us and it took a bit of getting used to remembering them.

But its amazing how much people in England are whinging about it or moaning. Its really not a big deal and its all in aid of helping the environment which is a good a reason as any to just get on with it.

buying a few biros why do you even need a bag?? buying a loaf of bread and a bottle of milk, again carry it. No need for a bag at all.
