Mary, I guess you must hate the SOLV organization too. They use plastic bags for beach clean ups and hand them out after the parades during the Rose Festival to avoid litter being left on the streets. Obviously to avoid any kind of discrimination towards grocery stores providing bags free with a purchase and people like myself that expect that kind of "good" customer service when shopping at them, the SOLV organization also must be charged 20 cents per bag or be required to use only reusable ones.
