Actually yes, since some shops now only have paper bags which are expensive and break just by looking at them. If you forget to bring a bag from home you're in trouble, especially if your groceries are heavy and you're far from home - the bags are guaranteed to break. (This is Europe, so you're walking back, obviously)
- ginko 5y agoPaper bags are actually sturdier than plastic bags from my experience.
- curmudgeon22 5y agoHandles are the culprit for paper bags I’ve used.

- qayxc 5y ago> If you forget to bring a bag from home you're in trouble If you forget your keys you're in bigger trouble, so I still don't see your point. Have we really come to the point where people carry a little supercomputer in their pockets at all time, but are unable to bring a bag when going shopping?
- renewiltord 5y agoHow is this not obvious? Things you do all the time aren’t forgotten. Things you do rarely are. That said, “grave inconvenience” is really something. Not having plastic bags is absolutely ruining my life. Kids are crying. Wife is mad at me. Boss thinks I’m slacking. Dentist says I don’t floss. If we could have plastic bags back my life would be so much better.
- rhesa 5y agoHere's how I solved this: I keep a crate in the trunk of my car. After paying my groceries, I put them back in the shopping cart. I drive that to my car, put the groceries in the crate, and return the shopping cart. No bags needed, and unloading at home is easier too.
- jhgb 5y agoIf you forget to bring a bag from home, you'll just buy a new plastic bag and don't forget to bring it from home the next time. Problem solved.
- mda 5y agoLidl bags are extremely sturdy. But honestly I have no sympathy for people who whines about lack of free plastic bags. Get over it.
