[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Reusable packaging

[Antoine Jaury]

And sorry Marc but I don't have an article explaining the use of one-use 
only bag proposed by bulk purchase shops.

In my case, I buy only bulk purchase products and it often happen in 
supermarket for example that you can only use the supermarket's paper 
bags with a plastic window on the bag to see what is inside. I tried 
once to use in an "Carrefour shop" a paper bag I reused from another 
shop and one of the sell men explained to me that I couldn't do that 
because they need to see what is inside the bag without opening it and 
for hygienic reasons we can't reuse a bag multiple times.

As explained also in my previous message: butchers, backery, pastry 
shops ... are the perfect example of shops with bulk products that will 
not automatically accept reusable packaging. It's difficult for instance 
to find a butcher that will accept that you use your glass jar to buy 
some meat. Most of them will say that they have to use one-use only bags 
for hygienic reasons.
