My hands are always too dry to separate the plastic.

My hands are always too dry to separate the plastic.

I go to two grocery stores, and in one, they have this convenient sliver of tab on the bags that allows you to easily pull them open, the other has satan bags that no amount of pulling, rolling, tearing, pushing, anything will open them, so now, I utilize my hand sanitizer to moisten my fingertips, then I'll grab however many bags I need all at once, and then I'll open them all just a little so that as I go through the produce aisle I don't have to keep stopping to try and open any bags because I've already done it. Same goes for the meat/poultry bags.
When I worked at a grocery store, I learned you rub your hands together with the bag in between your hands so you can separate the sides easier
There are three ''techniques'':
#1 You try one after the other until you get one that opens by itself
#2 You rub it between your flat palms. It WILL surrender :)
#3 Try the other end
The trick is to wet your finger and thumb (with a little spittle) and then slide them back and forth over the edge of the bag. Works for any plastic bag.

Yeah. I remember standing in a store once and I couldn't do it. I was like "Mother fffu... hold up." *looks up tips on youtube*
New techinque learned! :D
Harder to part than a nuns legs.
My husband or I would grab a few and open 'em up already as soon as we get to fresh foods aisles.
It's not difficult.
If I can't open the bags. I just throw the food till people start bitching and come to help me
I know, what a pain in the ass to get them open?
Yeah, but I can’t be a pain in the ass at times
I lick my fingers and have no problem with them
