Honestly, like others have said: give them to a cat owner, use them for your trash (maybe for smaller waste bins?), etc.

This!! I was just thinking how much I’d love to take those plastic bags off of their hands for that exact reason 🤣

Reply to comment by zstandig in Horrid, no good, very bad intersections by joe_digriz
NJ should add flashing yellow left arrows like much of the country has done. Allows you to turn when safe. Much more efficient than "left on green arrow only". Only appropriate at intersections with adequate sight distance.

They don’t get recycled. It’s a myth, like recycling in general, only way worse. Find someone with a cat that needs to clean out a litter box regularly. Give them to them and they will love you for it. https://ecologycenter.org/blog/trying-to-recycle-that-plastic-bag-the-odds-are-nine-to-one-its-not-happening/

I did doordash and have to travel pretty far. Even though the amount doordash gives you seems low for an order, you’ll make like 20-45 in 1 hour, depending on the distance of course. Tipping does help especially when paying for gas. It sucks when you drive 15+ miles, deal with traffic and not get a tip tho.

I’d be happy to take some of your bathroom garbage can liners. Unfortunately, I think you need to include them in your regular trash.

I wouldn’t call it a waste - you’ve probably been making a lot of people very happy - but based on this thread you’re certainly on the high end.

Maybe that seat would be harder. The Democrats should put someone up for the Senate seat though. The article made is seem like they don't plan to do so.

What’s difference for you the customer though? You pay more up front to cover their wage Or you tip to cover their wage

He’d be better off focusing on the State Senate seat than the Assembly. Thoughts?

He has my support. As a member of the NJ Assembly, there's only so much you can really achieve since much of the state is on auto-pilot. To succeed in NJ, you have to laser focus on an issue and build broad support around it. If he chooses non-public schools as this issue, he could possibly succeed and have an impact. I went to a non-public school in NJ and also would like to see this issue be addressed and optimized for society's benefit. NJ has one of the best school systems in the country, and I've felt the balance between non-public and public schools helped make this happen.
