Hmm, goes to show just how different, differnt regions are.
Where I live, the cashiers not only ask if you have your own bag, but they ask if you want to buy a cloth bag for $0.99. They have plenty of plastic bags, and most peoples groceries are bagged in plastic, but .. I guess we are an environmentally conscientious community.
I don't know what suggestions I can offer to you, maybe put your bag on top of your groceries as the cashier is scanning them (and politely remind the cashier that you didn't put your bag on top of your groceries for shi*s and giggles), and I dunno, just try to remain polite. You are afterall one of hundreds of customers that cashier will see in the day (I work in a grocery store lol, after a while it becomes hard to pay complete attention to a customer, cuz there are so many, but im not a cashier, so i dunno what runs through their head (if anything 
)
