Replies: 113 Asda Doing Their Bit Views: 2,658 Posted By jambutty Re: Asda Doing Their Bit Yes but the ‘normal’ carrier bag was not charged for. But if you are happy to advertise a supermarket and pay THEM for the privilege then that is up to you. I object to being used as a bill...

Replies: 113 Asda Doing Their Bit Views: 2,658 Posted By jambutty Re: Asda Doing Their Bit It’s not the cost but the principle of paying for a carrier bag that bears the issuing store details giving them free advertising. In any case a decrease in the use of plastic bags will be offset...
