Not related to the five cent cost, but there are stores I go to where they don't allow you to take outside containers (like bags) into the store.

Man that's fucking dystopian.

Eh. It's a low-profit-margin store in a bad area of a bad area. I get the rationale, and self-serve shopping is a pretty recent innovation itself (only developing come the 1920s or so). I wouldn't call it dystopian so much as unfortunate.

No offense but then that’s just a five cent tax on choosing that store.
