As of today plastic shopping bags have been banned in Westport, CT! Click here to read it in the Advocate.
Let’s hope the state follows suit. Time to spend the 99 cents per bag and purchase those super strong, extra large, green, recycled bags that all the grocery stores are selling.
Let me tell you, I use them and they are so much better. There is no concern for the handles tearing and the apple sauce crashing to the driveway on your way in. Besides that Grade-A offers a credit on your bill per bag you use, you just feel better about leaving the store knowing you haven’t put another plastic bag in a landfill.
Know why that makes me feel good? Look at this and learn the real cost of plastic bags. Or more from my last blog on the topic.
