shopping bag situation

We went to Japanese Grocery store yesterday and got potatoes and some snacks. When we checked out the stuffs we got, the lady at the registration asked us if we need a plastic bag. Since we had no place to put the stuffs, we said we want a bag. the lady immediately charged us 196 yen (2dollar) for plastic bag!

In states we never worried about carrying personal bag to carry stuffs. the plastic bag is so expensive here in Japan! We have to carry personal bag to grocery store otherwise they charge 2 dollar for a bag.
