The Sprouts policy to charge for bags is just a stupid idea that is costing them business because a lot of people resent being told what to do. If they actually wanted to reduce the amount of plastic, why do they package most of their products in plastic?
Funny about, "people resenting other people telling them what to do". People are told that they must pay their taxes. People in the US are told to drive on the right side of the road. I mean, I don't know too many people that stop for green traffic light and go on the red lights. Laws and convention Sheldon.
