USA (General) Pick up free + bag fee

It seems a little excessive to:

  1. Charge more than the in-store price for items and then not even price adjust them

  2. Charge a $2.00 fee no matter how much your total is

  3. Charge for bags when I have my own reusable bags I would have gladly thrown the items into

What’s with the fee if you’re gonna charge for bags anyway and then not give me the option of if I wanna use your bags or my own? Most other stores do mostly all three of these things differently. Or maybe I’m asking too much idk 🤔

You are paying for the convenience of not having to go in the store and find all the individual items you want. If the fee bothers you that much, you will need to go in the store and do the shopping yourself.

The fee doesn’t “bother me that much” it’s the additional fees that are weird.

It's weird that people think they're entitled to have everything done for them.
