But is bringing your own bags with you so hard? My parents are too old remember that but I never had an issue with it.
Yes it is too hard for people. I almost never see people bring their own bags in my small town of California.
It’s worth noting that as of the 2020 Census, 94.2% of Californians reside in urban areas (5000+ people or 2000+ housing units). If you really do live in a small town, it might be highly unrepresentative of the behavior of the state at large. This could be anything from different average distances to grocery stores, frequency of trips and weight/volume of items purchased per trip, means of transportation, wealth, and political attitudes that would all affect one’s consistency with using their own bags.
I’m not stating that it definitely doesn’t translate but that caution should be exercised when talking about small towns in such an urbanized state.

I have ADHD so yeah, sometimes. I even keep them in my car and often forget to bring them inside to actually use 'em 😩
That’s a you problem though. The grocery store isn’t making you forget you’re about to walk into their store.
