An Inconvenient Car Boot
(We are a plant nursery trying to reduce the amount of plastic bags we give out.)
Me: “Do you need a bag with that? We can give you a reusable plastic car boot liner or newspaper.”
Customer: “No bag. I’m trying to save the trees and the planet.”
Me: “Okay.”
Customer: *short pause* “Have you got a sheet of plastic I can use instead? Like the car boot liner, but with handles?”
Me: “What, like a plastic bag?”
Customer: “Perfect!”
