And later, when the bag is conveniently reused for some other purpose, the free advertising continues even when that use is unrelated to them or their product...

I suppose this is one instance where "business sustainability" and "corporate responsibility" mean two entirely different things (Corporate Responsibility or Business Sustainability?)
