This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I uh, avoid taking a cart, because I have a big ass reusable shopping bag. I'm not sure where that leaves me.
Wait, so you’re putting your unpaid items in the bag? I know there’s nothing inherently wrong with that but I’d be worried that someone would stop me or say something so I just hold on to mine until I check out.
Most places allow reusable bags and have self-checkout. These businesses have to factor in additional theft as being worthwhile compared to the savings on labor.
I use my own bag a lot of the time because my usual grocery store (ShopRite) doesn't put out baskets anymore. I don't want a cart or need a cart, I want a basket, but they're never out anymore. Like, they're just gone...
So either put the baskets back out, or accept we're going to use our reusable bags as baskets. Granted, I flip mine upside down in front of the self checkout camera to show I'm not stealing, but ffs... Just put the baskets back. 😭
