Paper vs Plastic

[Matthew]

I saw that Plaza food now has canvas bags that can be purchased and reused. Here is an interesting graphic on paper vs plastic.

I did not actually look. I was running through just to grab one thing that we forgot. If no one posts it before tonight and I will stop by on my way home to look.

Are they offering credits for using the canvas bags?

Not that I saw. They just had them in the back. Maybe other locations too, but I noticed the ones in the back.

$1.49/bag. They are in the back and front of the store. I bought two tonight, it was a light grocery trip.

TJ's gives a .05 credit for (re)using their paper bags and sells some canvas ones as well. Whenever I am in the Plaza, I ask for PAPER vs. plastic, yet it seems all others in line request plastic. Maybe some education is in order?

I bought an insulated bag at TJ's and also have paper bags in the trunk of my car. My problem is, I forget to take them out before I go into the store. Yes, I do have the CRS syndrone!

I'm with you Nana, I always ask for paper also.....

Realizing that its more expensive but would everyone in the community be willing to pay the upcharge per bag for the plaza to switch to the biodegradeable cornstarch bags?
