We’ve had this in Jersey for a couple of years now. It’s been great. I highly suggest that any Californians who read this go to their nearest grocer within the week after the change goes into effect, I had a grand old time laughing at all the lazy people raging at having to pay for reusable bags. I had already been using my own bags for years so it didn’t change my behavior at all. Has changed how much plastic litter I’ve seen outside, though.

My Whole Foods just uses paper bags, so I guess this doesn’t affect me :shrug:.
