Yep. PITA. They're not designed for blokes, you see. Shopping isn't a bloke's job [size=8]unless it's for power tools and beer[/size].

absolutely. i turned 30 recently and ever since i can't manage supermarket carrier bags 'cos they seem stuck together. much to the amusement/frustration* of mrs ilovemyelite. it's quite bizarre.

*delete as appropriate

actually my local tesco is no longer giving carrier bags out to customers unless specifically requested. they suggest it is part of their environmental awareness programme, but im sure it has more to do with appeasing government in relation to lobbying from eco-groups wanting an outright ban on carrier bags. that would spell disaster for the supermarkets, after all, most people do not go shopping with a pocket full of carrier bags already on them!

Oh Yes.... lifetime warranty on them.... take them back to the woman with the large chest on the customer services counter and she'll demonstrate how to get them out and open... the bag I mean, not the chest  ::)
