Coles Paper Bag Cost Rise Draws Online Backlash

Coles has bumped up the price of its paper bags, triggering criticism from Australian shoppers online. Some customers have called the move "un-Australian", with frustration flooding social media platforms.

The price rise adds to broader cost-of-living pressure on grocery shoppers. Woolworths also lifted the price of a budget staple around the same time, leaving many Australians doing it tough at the checkout.
