Ridiculous. I used to manage a shop and never paid for my bags and always told my staff not to pay for them either

We'd just write off any phantom stock periodically which at cost price would be pennies

The Problem is they are Bags for Life
Strong Plast Orange.


So if they split
you can go in and swap it for a new one

30p bags these days are the thin single use bags, that's what customers are charged for them. Bags for life are a few quid

Yeah those co op ones are crap

The best are the Morrisons paper bags. You'd think they'd be flimsy but they can actually carry a ton. And they're cheaper than their plastic ones
