    Exclamation Whole Foods no longer using plastic bags

    Yeah! Whole Foods is no longer using plastic bags at the check out.
    http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/byobag/faq.html

    Whole foods is large enough to pioneer a new way of bagging (but really the old way). At least in my area, using cloth bags is a normal thing at this store.

    It was wasn't always that way. At first we just brought in our own plastic bags that we got from previous grocery trips.

    That developed into selling bags for $1, making you're own bags, using a backback, using those cotton bags that stretch out forever.

    It's just so normal now.


    I am so happy !!
