If I don't need a bag, I let them know. Some items, like gallons of milk or cases of canned beverages have a handle that is more comfortable than the bunched up plastic cutting into your hand. I think this question came about when people started asking for items without bags frequently enough that no bag for the above mentioned items became the default.
The meme that drives me crazy is the propogation of, "Can I get a..." in lieu of "May I have a..." or even "Can I have..."
"Can I get a pack of cigarettes?" should be answered by the clerk with, "No, I'll have to get them for you."
