Walmart bagless curbside pickup??

My WM is going completely bagless. Both in-store and curbside pickup. 

 

How does that work for curbside pickup? I know I have to bring my own bags but then what?

@SilleeMee  They bring you your order in large type baskets and then transfer it to your bags. I do not know who makes the transfer, you or the shopper.

Thank you @Janey2 

Seems like it could be problematic on so many levels. One thing is that it's a for sure way of spreading germs from other peoples' bags to mine. If I have to get out of my car to load my own bags that's also a problem for me b/c I have issues with my hands. Things could get backed up in the mean time. Not happy about this at all.

I haven't heard anything about that here in Florida. What state are you in?

 

I could probably just put a bunch of WM bags in the trunk for them to use... lol But it makes sense to me. I use reusable bags when I go into stores & have for years.

 

They'd have to train the workers to use the bags we have and pack them correctly. Most of the time, when I use WM pickup, they avoid putting anything at all in the trunk organizer that is just sitting there empty & waiting to hold stuff in place...

Walmart tried paper bags on one of my home deliveries.  All of them were torn, some pretty badly.  That was the last time I saw them.

@SilleeMee @I can't imagine it working this way. I'd think they would just bring our orders out in the big crates they use now. With smaller ones for small objects. We could pop the trunk & they would transfer items to bags we have waiting in our trunk. I can't imagine any contamination or contact with other people's bags. I do not think they would tell us to bag the items ourselves.

In the name of saving the environment, Walmart has jumped aboard and pushing more costs onto the consumers, but still raising prices.

 

Saving money on using customers to check themselves out.  Now, they expect them to buy their own bags.

I usually order online and then pickup. They play nasty games with prices.

You mean they charge more online than in the store?  I am aware of that.  All of those I used in the past do that.  What other nasty games have you seen?

Re: Walmart bagless curbside pickup??

I wonder what "genius" thought this up...WE REUSE those BAGS for trash, dog poop, and a bunch of other things...     

 

So if WE have to BUY more bags...WHO IS THE WINNER?????   

 

The S T O R E, of course...    Meanwhile, the "environment" still has "bags"...
