Your entire life experience changes the day you install a bidet
Well there goes my dick wipes
Personally I don't, just pointing out getting these things is trivial, even if you don't shop online most small markets will sell them as I'm sure they will for whatever else they think of banning next, I've already seen big packs of plastic bags and straws being sold, as long as there is a demand someone will supply it.
Plastic bags haven't been banned, shops just have to charge for them. And neither have plastic straws been banned, it's just a proposal
I know bags are not banned but 10p each is ridiculous, if you dig around you can get the exact same kind of bag for 1-3p each, as for plastic straws I don't see them going anywhere as the alternative is shit.
Well yeah if you dig around you can buy them in bulk for pennies, but the vast majority of people aren't doing that. They're either reusing their bags or putting up with the charge when they forget them I can't comment on straws as I can't even remember the last time I used one
The bag charge is 5p minimum. If you're being charged 10p then you're being gouged. Just get a reusable bag anyway and grab some cheap biodegradable bin liners or something from somewhere shit like Savers or Poundland. Even if the 5p bags are tougher than the old free ones, reusable ones still suck considerably less.
