That's one way of putting it. I'd say that at least some smaller independent retailers are petrified of Revenue 'field exercises' to boost bag levy yield, and are wary of facilitating customer requests for bags for fear the 'customer' is a Revenue official.It would appear that Dunnes Stores legal battle has had the effect of clarify the area of veg/ meat bags.
So was the supermarket wrong?
Did you ask the cashier or manager about this at the time?Bought a tray of chicken fillets in JC's supermarket Swords and used a flimsy vegetable bag to put it in.
I was charged 20c at check out. Is that legal?
I have never had this problem in Dunnes or Superquinn. Is this a new thing or just this supermarket? It's not a once off as it happened before but thought on that occasion the young girl had made a mistake.

Whatever about the charge assuming that the tray was already (cling film?) wrapped then another bag seems unnecessary?
Lidle provide jobs for Irish people, same as Tesco why not support them and they don't charge for the flimsy plastic bags either!
Very patriotic...not.
We should be supporting Irish businesses rather than German discount chains.

By the way, I am from the area and I highly recommend people visit JC's if they are in the Swords area. It is an unique experience!
