Probably not Wal-Mart's fault. Blame your state for passing laws outlawing plastic bags. Then blame yourself for voting in the politicians that passed those laws.

Alternatively, just bring reusable bags and solve the problem entirely.

It probably changes person to person For me, most of the time when I go to the store, its a spur of the moment type thing Which is why most of the time, I dont bring any reusable bags with me That said, I also like plastic bags since I reuse them quite often More than the reusable bags, tbh

I just have a bag of bags in my car at all times. Even if I take an unplanned trip to a store, I've got one or more bags I can use as needed. If I randomly decide to go pick stuff up when I'm on my way home from work and don't have my car (I usually walk or bike to work), I've got a backpack (and if I made a habit of making such trips and picking up more than I could carry with just the backpack, I could stick a bag or two in there).

Plastic bags are the best to use for cleaning the litter box.

I just use fold-top sandwich bags to scoop poop as needed. It's like $2 for a box of 100 that lasts for a few months, so not exactly an appreciable cost.

I mean, my grandparents didn't talk about the space program or the Civil Rights Movement changing the world either. Would your argument be that neither of them were significant either and we can safely roll them both back to pre-1960s levels?

They also weren't personally affected by those things (at least not directly and obviously, since the space program is responsible for many everyday products that people don't necessarily realize came from it), so that's not exactly the best comparison.
