Right, as Moose says, it varies. A few of the big PacNW cities have
banned plastic. Locally it's a slightly different tack, we get a few
cents credit for bringing our own bag. The town council also banned
styrofoam containers except for meat. The local market frequently hands
out reusable bags for free. Most people use them, actually used to
flaunt them to display enviro cred as in, "Look at my Food Coop bag from
_____". Now it's pretty mundane. :) I keep a couple in the truck as
they are handy for many jobs. We even took one to Scotland with us which
came in handy at Tesco. :)
