I don't want to sound stupid or anything... but can you explain this to me? I'm sure it's a very simple thing but just don't understand it :l

The cashiers at supermarkets and other places some times ask if you want your things put into plastic or paper bags. I actually have never been asked this before. It's always just assumed you're going to want plastic.

I get it now! Thank you. You've never been asked that?

Nope, not once in my entire life haha. I think it's partially because paper bags are a bitch to use

Paper bags aren't hard to use once you get used to them. I prefer bagging with paper. Now, if my dumb ass manager orders them without handles, I'm ready to cut her and every customer that asks for them.

They don't even have paper bags at supermarkets where I'm from. They ask "Would you like a bag/packet/plastic?" and then you can buy one for around 20c. The only paper bags are the small ones they put your medicine in at the chemist or the ones you can get biltong in.
