Hi, I'm just really amazed how much things have changed in 10 years. The hysterical reactions to Woolworths stopping the use of plastic bags & now because of this hysterical reaction they are giving away for next 10 days the 15 cent bags for free. In South Australia it's been 10 years since we fased out the plastic bags & went to re usable bags. How things have changed. There was no hysterical reaction in this state via social media, we just got on with the change, sure we might have forgotten to bring our bags a few times, & now it's just second nature. If we did forget, 15 cents for his sake isn't going to break me. Just shows the joke that is social media! These people carrying on seriously need to get a life!

Hi Joe, I almost choked on my weetbix... Transparent government, now you're really asking for the impossible :)
Here in SA we already have to pay for parking in Westfield shopping centres!
I agree what is next, getting our own cows maybe an option, it's just a joke. I am just staggered how nowadays everyone is pandered too.
This is changing, move on & get on with it... Oh no, can't have that, so let's give the bags for free & not upset people, now oh let's give Woolworths rewards customers extra 2 points PER bag, for being such good children & bringing your own bags, cause it's such a difficult thing to do, I'm mean give me strength!
People outraged, I'm not shopping here again , so don't then? You have a couple other options which will also stop the free plastic bags, what then? Maybe move to another country that still gives out the bags... Just a joke.
Couldn't agree with your comments more Joe, appreciate your reply.
Cheers
