It may come as a surprise, but everything in a store from heat to plastic bags has a cost and the cost is passed on to the shoppers. Stores such as Walmart is simply hiding the charge for bags and potentially making a profit on them. Stores that charge for bags are making the cost more obvious and allowing the customer to opt out (saving money) by using re-usable bags or carrying the unwrapped package out of the store.
