Bergen has been doing it for a year or two longer.

I must have about 50 of them. Someone forgets to put them back in the car, or puts the ones from one car back into the other car, only for me to discover i have none once i'm at the store. Or we randomly decide to buy a few things when we weren't expecting to and don't feel like hiking back to the car for a bag. Also for some reason our local chinese place was putting orders in them for a while, so i have a bunch of those.

The law should allow for paper\plastic with a nominal charge, maybe like a quarter each or something. Enough to strongly encourage their use, but where you don't end up buying yet another reusable if you find yourself in a pinch.

Its also somewhat self defeating, because now we just buy little plastic bags for the various trash cans around the house anyway, which we previously reused the plastic store bags for.
