Grocery Bags

     A problem that I see by observing that people would not admit to is unloading groceries. When you go into a grocery store the items you buy are placed in a plastic bag with no structure. Some of the times the bag never makes it in one piece home it gets torn and the items are every where in your vehicle. Paper bags used to be a solution to this problem but now all stores have went to plastic which is a lot cheaper and easier to place the items in. If you was to ask a person though if they are having problems with unloading or loading their groceries their initial response would be "no" when in reality they really are having a problem. The stores use the plastic bags though because they are cheaper. In my opinion this is a way that marketers have decided to keep the cost from being so high because the price of the plastic bags are factored in with the groceries because the store is not going to give you the bag just to never see it again. In reality nothing is free and the plastic bags are cheaper even though they do cause trouble to the people that use them.
