They were mentioned in the budget - if supermarkets dont restrict their use - Darling will

There is more to this budget than booze and fags

Think about it, years ago we used to pay for carrier bags, 1p at kwik save or 5p for stronger ones......think about it we still do pay for carrier bags, they just put the price on the food:rolleyes:

as kwik save used to say..."theres no such thing as a free carrier bag!!"....:D

The changes to PAYE tax bandings were announced previously will mean quite a lot of people will be paying more.

All earnings above the tax allowance will be taxed at 20%, whereas before there was an interim band at 10%.

This will not affect me because the over 65s tax allowances have been increased to compensate for it.

You'd be so suprised just how many people reuse their carrier bags at Tesco. Its a question us on the checkout now have to ask: "Are you reusing any of your bags?" Then: "Do you want help with your packing?"
Unless thats just people wanting extra clubcard points, because your get extra if you reuse bags and 3 extra points if you reuse a Bag for Life.

Am at Rawtenstall Store. The one that used to be Asda (see Tesco do recycle :p)

You can bring your old Bags For Life in and we will replace them free of charge and then we recycle the old ones.

That was very carefully worded Dave, nice one, in my time the old bags cost me a fortune and you couldn't recycle them either:rolleyes:

Living dangerously there dave!!!!

Me it wont bother me that much seeing as i take a bag shopping with me anyway and only use a carrier if i fill the bag. Mind you i have to tell the assistant everytime i go to asda or tesco or iceland etc that i dont need a carrier bag ive got a bag even though its on my shoulder.
