When the bag tax was added in DC, cashiers stopped bagging items by default. I'd bet that a $0.01 tax would work nearly as well; I don't think it's about the money. To their credit, the city also apparently did a very good job of educating business owners and enforcing the tax. Compliance seems very high.
