You can walk into the store that has a bag ban and buy a box of bags. Then you use those bags to pick up dog poop or line your trash cans or whatever other things you used to do with the previously free store bags that are now banned or charged for. It's not about banning the bags to save the environment. It's about the store getting getting paid for the bag, either as a bag fee or in a box.
