Similar thing in Austin, TX. City banned single use plastic bags, so HEB (the largest grocer) introduced durable reusable plastic bags to purchase. Unsurprisingly, people ate the cost, treated them like single use bags, and now we have an even worse waste problem.

Liberal policymaking in a nutshell.
Wegmans reusable bags are $1 a pop, so no one's eating the cost. Seems to be quite a decent reuse rate; I've got some several years old at this point.
