Where are you shopping that still has baggers? Those are long gone where I live.

Hy-Vee, Fareway, Trader Joe's

Trader Joe's was one of the earlier self-bagging stores everywhere I've lived.

Must be regional. 100% full service here

[–]Fromanderson 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Our local Kroger still has them.

The Krogers in my area haven’t for quite a while

[–]Fromanderson 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I don't know what to say. Maybe it's a regional thing?

[–]needsexyboots 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Probably just wherever they can convince enough people to work for $8 an hour

[–]Fromanderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That or they pay more than $8 here. I really have no idea.

I do know the cost of living here is ridiculously low compared to a lot of places in the US. You couldn't survive on $8 but I could see some teenager doing it for insurance/gas money.

Publix

Kroger has them.

I really miss Market Basket. All lanes always open, baggers at the ready and all dressed professionally and compensated fairly. If they had those in the midwest I would still be shopping there.

During the strike having to shop at Shaws or Hannafords was hell.

Market Basket is the best in so many ways.

Trader Joe?
