That's the way the grocery stores here have been for years. And now they have banned plastic bags for everything except like meat or things that could get contaminated if they aren't in plastic. But clothing stores and such no longer have plastic bags. I have a bunch of those small nylon bags that fold up into a pocket and I keep them in my purse so whenever I buy stuff, I just pull out one of those bags and then when I unpack it at home, the bag gets folded up and put back in the purse. And I have a big grocery bag on wheels so I don't have to carry things like milk jugs and juice packs, etc. Primark sells the foldable nylon ones with Disney prints, Harry Potter, Friends, etc.
What you experience is beyond my area. Remind me where you live please?

Wow...MAGIC! I wish chores would magically get done in my house. If I leave something out near where it needs to go...it will still be there a month later if I don't do it. I guess everyone ELSE in the house is probably convinced that everything gets done by magic. :rolleyes::hilarious: Somehow the clean dishes magially remove themselves from the dishwasher and put themselves away. Laundry magically hangs itself up to dry and then folds itself and puts itself away. Or so they believe.

There's magic in my house... we have a laundry chute from our top floor... and DH comments on how he throws down his dirty clothes and they magically always come upstairs clean and folded. :banghead:

So it's actually a real thing in Mexico? I assumed it was some weird Dutch person was like...oh hey....Flan is a typical Mexican dessert, let's put it on top of a chocolate monstrosity and call it Mexican. Because most things over here are not authentic. I went to an "American breakfast buffet" once and the only thing American about it were the names. The pancakes were Dutch pancakes, not American ones, and they didn't have maple syrup. They served the cereal with yogurt, which is Dutch....Americans use milk. The scrambled eggs had salmon chunks in them....I've never heard of putting salmon in scrambled eggs. Bacon, yes...salmon? No. They didn't have bacon or sausage, they didn't have waffles....there was just nothing American about it. And my friends here from Mexico said that what they call Mexican food in the Netherlands is not authentic. So I figured it was a Dutch invention using Mexican food components, so they call it Mexican food.
Well, to be sure, next time take a photo of the food and I will give you my True Mexican(tm) opinion :P

Is FNTM Fantasmic? He did fine with all the shows except It's tough to be a bug...that one was awful. And the end of Nemo, with the bubbles, he was upset that he couldn't catch a bubble. All the other shows he was fine with. Dinosaur was closed last time, so I don't know what that is and whether they will want to ride it or not, but my understanding is there is a suspenseful part, so DS won't do that....but he might play in the boneyard. I'm thinking we'll have to do rider swap for FOP, because he doesn't like heights. I'm going to have to really do my research on AK this time.
I'm sorry! Nemo. Note to self don't try to cook and talk at the same time

Additionally, 3 weeks ago we went to the Disney Outlet store in Jackson NJ and the cashier warned us that upon our next visit, the store will not be providing plastic bags to put our purchases in. We will either have to bring our own bags or buy their reusable bags.
I almost never leave a store with a bag from the store I have a nice large stack of reuseable bags always ready to go:joyfull: I made quite a few of them myself:joyfull:

I have the metal ones, luckily I bought the ones that have the silicone tips you can put on the end, because drinking from straight metal is like licking a flag pole in the winter.. too cold, and your lips could get stuck!
If you are in a park, do you go to a bathroom to clean them? I would just worry about bacteria building up inside them, even with a bristle cleaner. And if it would touch any part of the sink I would have to reclean it. I am a tad OCD when it comes to germs. I think I would rather drink from a cup without a straw.

I haven't brought them to the parks yet, I mostly just use it in my cup at work, and we have a big sink there I can clean it in... I'm not a germaphobe by any means, but like someone else said, I refuse to drink directly out of a glass that someone else has washed. I don't know how well it's been washed or where their hands have been.
