Department stores in the U.S. give the same type of high quality shopping bags that department stores in Japan give you.

I don’t hoard shopping bags. In fact, I don’t care to get them in the first place and generally just recycle them with the rest of my paper if someone else gives me a “posh” wrapper on a cheap souvenir. They’re not fooling anyone with the nice bag anyway.
