You mean the very thin single use ones? What do you need them for and can't you buy them? Can't you use other kind of bags?
can't you buy them
I mean, that's the point; you didn't have to. Never had to think about it, they were just there and free, accumulated from the groceries I brought home. I used them for small trashcan liners and to clean out the cat litterbox.
Yeah I use other bags for other things now. I used cloth for groceries and instead of reusing the grocery bag, now I buy plastic garbage bags...
That's a really good idea.. I didn't think to use the tp bag.
I have the new plastic bags, here. The ones that are supposed to replace the old ones, but are just THICC plastic and cost $0.10-$0.50 each. You'd think I'd go "oh wow, more robust, is better!" But it feels so much less guilt free and so not only do I not get them as often, but don't use them because it would be wasteful if I did use them, and they're still a shitty "disposable" plastic bag and not trustworthy for important stuff.
Yeah it's interesting to see it all change. Ups and downs.
I ran out of my bags last year, but that was the whole purpose of them
well we did until they made us buy a heavier duty product that takes way more resources to get inside my house
I used to, until my state made stores stop giving out plastic bags.
Now I have to buy trash bags. But I go out of my way to buy compostable ones because buying single-use plastic to replace double-used plastic would defeat the point of all of this.
What horrible 19th century plague do you think the subject of this painting was dying of?
Unfortunately, Wikipedia (French) doesn't provide any information regarding the illness the (already 2 hours dead) woman had been suffering of. If she didn't die from disease, it could also be a post partum death.
Tuberculosis
2 is 1, 1 is none.
There should be 2 plastic bags of plastic bags. 1 to hold clean food safe bags, the other to hold non clean bags to line the garbage baskets.
Which one, paper or plastic? The good ones, or the small ones, or the regular ones, or the big ones?
Yes
Wait, then what's she going to use for her coffin?
Hell yeah! I do love me some garbage that has yet to enter a landfill!
I upgraded my parent bag to a box, ha
The reusable bags mandated in my country are now just even more wasteful disposable bags... Especially when they're made out of this plastic that goes brittle and dry rots over time. Eventually the bag can't hold anything without ripping so it needs to be thrown out. Sometimes in less than a year...

I unironically want them. No more plastic bags where I live, so I'm running on reserve. I only have a few years stockpile left.
