@scottsthoughts@better.boston Another place that's a big issue is supermarkets. You have to bring your own grocery bags, but you can't carry them and other essentials in a backpack? Some chains implement this policy only at their stores where shoppers are most likely to arrive on foot or on a bus... and despite surveillance cameras all over the store that would allow them to easily see if anyone was shoving merchandise into a backpack.

@PedestrianError@towns.gay my god... what!? Use reusable bags. But not ones that are easy to carry. Got it. Absolutely wild.

@PedestrianError@towns.gay @scottsthoughts@better.boston That's bonkers. I've never encountered it, though.
