    The BBC has reported that the plan for bio degradable bag exemption has been dropped so I think it looks like you will get charged let's not forget they don't give a toss about the environment :mad:

    Its another tax as for the carp about giving it to charity most charities Are set up to benefit the fat cats at the top on six figure + salaries As a very small percentage of the money raised filters down to benefit the people it was collected for it the first place


    relates to plastic bags with handles only...


    https://www.gov.uk/guidance/carrier-bag-charges-retailers-responsibilities


    Bags you charge for

    A bag is considered as such if it has an opening and isn’t sealed. You must charge at least 5p a bag for carrier bags that are all of the following:
    • unused - it’s new and hasn’t been used previously for sold goods to be taken away or delivered
    • plastic
    • with handles
    • 70 microns thick or less

    I think the "paper bag" thing is different in Wales and possibly Scotland....they do pay but in England there isn't a charge...

    Yes I agree what I am trying to say is they did the same thing here then started charging for paper biodegradable bags

    So it is not about the environment its about the money its only 5p per bag but think of all those transactions every day it's a lot of money when you total it up

    Coffee - it has to be Douwe Egbert's OR at a push Kenco - whichever is cheapest when I need to replenish my stash. This is the instant stuff. Ground coffee - the strongest tastiest we can find. Almost, but not quite, brand loyal! I can't think of anything that I just always buy 1 brand?

    Ooooh I just thought of something else - Quorn! Nothing else comes close to their chicken style pieces or their beef style mince.
