The 5p plastic bag charge isn’t going away any time soon, but some people are reacting in strange ways.
A Tesco store in Oldham has been forced to put security tags on their baskets after shoppers were seen making off with them to avoid paying for bags.
“It is not a blanket policy, but we have introduced security tags as a result,” Tesco said.
Of course it’s not a blanket policy – it’s a basket policy.
You’d have to be off your trolley to nick a basket, surely?
