Seven Eleven still giving plastic bags to anyone but stingy if you’re only buying  something small

Featured Replies

In Korat we literally just got home from Seven Eleven and they most certainly are giving plastic bags to anyone buying anything big. They are being stingy with the plastic bags for people buying little items but we just bought 4 packs of tissue paper and a big case of water and guess what these pictures were just taken 15 minutes ago at Seven Eleven within walking distance of my house in Korat. 
 

See what I mean compared to what some people are saying as if plastic bags are totally gone? They haven’t gone anywhere only the grocery store in the mall is totally complying with any supposed new law which I haven’t even cared to read to be honest.
 

But like I said under the original article plastic bags are still everywhere in Thailand including eco friendly Seven Eleven ????

There is no new law, it's an agreement between some retailers and their association.

The bags  now don't have 7/11 advertising on them ????   ..I wish they where still handing them out in my area, there is still one popular with Russian tourists that will give a bag if asked bag does not have the store name and is just big enough to squeeze 2 cans of beer into.

Here from what I see: no plastic bags handed out unless taking home heated food.

We just received this order from FoodPanda I will not name the specific restaurant because of defamation laws in Thailand and I wouldn’t want to get some kid in trouble anyway that’s not a cool thing to do in Thailand so I let stuff slide a lot more than this sometimes.
 

But look at this BS from an unnamed restaurant!!!!!!!!!! 

 

I mean really TWO big plastic cups for my ice bubble tea and an extra big plastic cup just for my ICE??????????????????? REALLY???? They need to make my darn coffee right anyway lol. 
 

FoodPanda is awesome by the way very reasonably priced and great delivery service and much healthier choices of food just for home food delivery service! And foreign food as well!!! Great service Foodpanda so this is definitely not their fault it was an unnamed restaurant in Korat. 

 

So anyway look at this B.S.
