Signed, we were carrying re-usable bags long before the supermarkets stated the 5p charge. We have 2 cold bags that we use for the fridge products but they are quite old and wearing out now, one was from Sainsburys one from M&S neither seem to do a direct replacement which is a shame.
A year ago when I was in USA for 5 weeks I saw the supermarkets still put the shopping in deep heavy duty brown paper bags.. but are still guilty of plastiv wrapped fruit and the hotels all ude throwaway polystyrene dishes vups and plates for breakfast !!! Plastic does not often go to land fill as they have to pay a dollar per black sack and take in there themselve.. It was in East Texas so they all have huge urn pits in their yards and burn everything that burns regardless of the polluton and damage to the ozone layer, reason being, they don't care..
Recycling is pretty much down to beer cans cos if they flatten them and take them to the tip they get money back on the ali cans to buy mire beer.. I never saw an actual compost heap but they fished and bury thr fish guts in their back yards... Phew!

Here you go Newboy ?....
Plus an example of the sort of "heavy stuff" it helps with. Bag of litter from yesterdays shop was still inside it
.
I can fit a 50l bag of compost in a trolley, which is very handy for me as I don't drive, and there's a wilko a short walk from home ?.
Thanks Kitty 2
I can imagine thousands of shoppers descending on Tescos with A Doris

Signed.
Thank you Joyce.?
I've just written to Twinings for assurance that they do not use plastics. Maybe we could all do that?
its a start isn’t it,
the Co-Op have stopped using it now, we don’t have a Co-Op store though?

There are several choices of loose tea in Tesco and Morrison already. Has everyone got their teapots ready and warmed?
