A Little Tea's takeout bags are in short supply, and customers receiving their orders in garbage bag packaging has sparked widespread discussion.

Recently, some consumers reported that when buying a cup of Yidiandian milk tea at a store, staff actually packed the drinks in thin transparent plastic bags or even black garbage bags, sparking heated discussion online. Behind this is not stinginess on the part of the store, but the fact that the paper bags promised by headquarters as replacements had still not arrived, leaving some stores in the awkward situation of "having no bags to use." Employees revealed that before the Chinese New Year, headquarters notified them that plastic bags would be replaced with paper bags, but there has still been no sign of them, and they were instead told they would have to wait until April.
