My Hero

Everyone's concerned about the economy and at the store it's no different.

We're trying to keep expenses down, and the other day the boss asked that we try to use up this stack of bags that's cheaper than our normal "Thank you" with handles "t-shirt" bag. Problem is, these bags are annoying. They look okay when you pull them out, but as soon as you put anything in them, the gussets expand and suddenly the bag is wider than it is tall and tends to want to spit out the contents.

We dutifully attempted to use this bag for the next customer who came in. We stuffed in her stamped goods, her embroidery floss, and chocolate bars. She tried to pick it up, experienced the content spit out factor, and directly took the whole bag and dropped it into one of the t-shirt bags hanging in the dispenser on the counter and walked out.
