I didn't know stores in the US started charging money for plastic bags

So we have Aldi, a grocery store and I think you have to bring your own bags or boxes for the items you buy. Last time I was at Giant and walmart, your items were placed into plastic bags no problem.

Yesterday I went to Petco to buy reptile bulbs. So the cashier rings me up, I paid, and then..... like nothing. And I said, could I get those in a bag please? The cashier responds, OH, bags are 10 cents. Oh here, give her a dollar and got back 90 cents in change. Then the cashier says, yea walmart is going to be doing this real soon too.

As far as I know I didn't react like out of the ordinary about it, but I feel like the cashier was bothered by me asking for a bag, so the cashier says, oh yeah walmart is going to be doing this real soon too. I just went, ohhh. Then I said, good thing Dollar General is 3 minutes from home, I don't see them doing it any time soon, and the cashier just kinda chuckled.

Have you heard anything about walmart/giant or any other type of store charging for plastic bags recently?

I didn't notice, I use reusable bags anyway.
