Recently, a customer posted a post titled "how to become so sloppy" on a social platform, reporting that when they bought milk tea in a store, the clerk packed the drink in a transparent plastic bag without the brand logo.

Coincidentally, another consumer also posted that when he recently went to the store to buy drinks, the employee said there were no packing bags in the store and used a black plastic bag to help him pack two cups of milk tea. The customer said that he agreed to the clerk with a confused face at that time, but in retrospect, the store should be able to provide insulation bags, but the clerk did not mention and took out a garbage bag to pack drinks, which was more or less uncomfortable.

A series of customer feedback makes many workers feel miserable, but it is not that they are stingy and unwilling to give customers better quality packing bags, but that there are really no plastic bags available in the store. According to employees, the headquarters issued a notice a year ago that the plastic bags being used in the store would be replaced with paper bags, reminding the person in charge to control the stock when ordering packing materials.

However, more than half a month after the New year, the paper bags mentioned by the headquarters have not been seen for a long time. On the contrary, they are "now telling us that paper bags will not be available until April", which has caught stores short of goods by surprise. After the two peaks of Spring Festival and Valentine's Day, some stores have fallen into the dilemma of "running out of bags and not being able to order goods".

As a result, some employees only use ordinary plastic bags purchased by themselves to pack drinks, making do with this awkward period of "no bags available".

As for the thermal insulation bags mentioned by netizens, the shop assistant said helplessly that the thermal insulation bags are expensive and have corresponding inventory, which are usually only used for takeout orders, and customers who want to buy drinks offline will have to pay an additional packing fee. If the shop assistant directly uses the thermal insulation bag instead of the original plastic bag, it will not only violate the store production requirements, but also lead to a mismatch in the number of packing bags.

When chain brands use paper packing bags such as logo and IP, and gain fans' attention with their own beautiful bags, a little bit insists on using plastic bags with green spots on a white background. Interestingly, loyal users of the brand have their own opinions on the plastic bags that the authorities insist on using.

People who pursue appearance think that "holding a plastic bag has a feeling of buying food", and the plastic bag may smell bad, the pattern fades, and is not environmentally friendly, affecting the customer's consumption experience. But the pragmatic school believes that the plastic bags are strong and durable, not easy to damage, can also hold sundries or rubbish after filling milk tea, and the plastic bags can give guests sense of security on rainy days, so they don't have to worry about the bottom damage after they get drenched in water.

Therefore, for the matter of "a little bit of paper bag packaging", users who have been worried about plastic bags for a long time are naturally jubilant and supportive. "Paper bags are really good-looking" and "this is too good-looking, hurry up to change." Some netizens even speculated that the brand "changing paper bags is probably going to join the craze of joint names everywhere in the milk tea industry", which has been looking forward to the follow-up trend of the authorities.

However, old fans want the brand to remain the same: "tonics, I like plastic bags" and "No! it's easy to break in rainy days", "plastic bags are extremely convenient, paper bags are troublesome and easy to rot." In their view, adhere to plastic bags is a little bit unique, once replaced with paper bags will be the same as other brands, the lack of a little different.
