Only the ones with foods that can contaminate things with. Plastic bag-covered breads, canned goods, paper goods - do not have to be washed after each use.
If you're buying meat, chicken, fish, produce - you can put those in the produce bags that they will continue to provide at the produce section, to keep them from contaminating the bag.
If you use cloth bags, you would want to wash them regularly anyway.
Again - this is not a "thing" in any part of the world where plastic bags are considered a premium product and not offered free at stores.
