how do you always open a bag of chips?

I either pull it apart or pop the bag open most of the time when I pop it chips fall out so I stopped doing it
 
by side do you mean just ripping a little corner off from the side at the top? i only ever do that if the bag is small enough, otherwise it's opened from the top for me.

That's the same for me. If I opened up a smaller bag fully, I feel like the contents would just go everywhere (especially with a stiff/dodgy bag) as it happened to me once before. I would only open the top if I was absolutely sure that I know I would eat all of them. Normally, I open a corner when I'm eating something like a bag of nuts or sweets, but a lot of packaging these days make it easier to open and reseal bags. How very kind of them lol
 
I pinch both the top front and back and pull them apart.
 
I've always just pulled it apart at the top by grabbing near the top of the front and back sides. In the rare event this doesn't work, then I'll just use scissors to get it open instead.
 
I either pull open the top of the bag or cut across the top with scissors. If I'm eating chips like Cheetos, I also use chopsticks to avoid getting residue on my fingertips. XD
 
I pull it open from the top, but depending on my mood I’ll either open it all the or only half way. If it’s a big bag of chips once I get towards the bottoms I’ll use scissors and cut it across to make it shorter so my wrist and/or arms don’t get all oily with the residue.
 
I try opening it from the top though occasionally I’ll end up opening it from the bottom - not on purpose of course, but because I didn’t look at how i was holding the bag.
