The East West Market, an independent grocery store in Vancouver, British Columbia, wants its shoppers to bring their own reusable bags instead of relying on disposable plastic bags given at the store. So it produced bags that no one would want to be seen casually carrying.
Well, perhaps I should better say that some people would never want to be seen casually carrying these bags. I can easily imagine myself reusing these bags just to get weird looks from people.
They're funny, but I'm skeptical that intentionally humiliating customers is a good business practice.

Frankly I'd love to have them. They'd make great gift bags.
