You tell us: Do you think if you order standing up, you shouldn’t tip? Cast your vote here.
Circling back: Last time, we told you that to combat shoplifting, Giant Food stores in Washington, DC had banned closed bags like knapsacks and duffel bags larger than 14” x 14” x 6” (but permitting reusable shopping totes).
We asked if you thought stores that had high rates of shoplifting should ban large knapsacks and duffels to combat shoplifting, and 86.6% of you did, while 10.7% of you thought stores in that situation should not ban large bags and 2.7% of you didn’t know or weren’t sure.
