    ‘Do I get a discount if I take your free gym bag with the name of your gym’. Response is always no and a very weird stare

    Also grocery bags. I pay for them, don’t want you logo on it

      One alcohol bewerage chain in Russia popularized the blank black bag format in recent years, in theory - to make it less obvious you’ve bought booze. They are sturdy, have good handles, so overall it’s a win. But since they are the most popular source of them, a blank black bag therefore automatically means booze.

      It’s damn near impossible to find bags without some greedy shit grocery companies trashy branding all over it. I still use plastic bags. Got a million of them in the weird plastic tub thing that everyone has a million of them in.

      People look when I pull out some 15 year old plastic bag is amazing.
