06 May 2009 - Co-Op is trialling a ban on free plastic bags
Co-Op is trialling a ban on free plastic bags
posted 06 May 2009
In case you haven’t noticed yet, the Co-op are doing a trial ban on free plastic bags – great news, and all thanks to Jo Baldwin!
However, the counter staff are getting lots of flack from disgruntled people used to using free bags on every visit. I think we can support the ban in becoming permanent by voicing our support for it, and sympathising with the till staff who have to put up with verbal abuse during this period. Hopefully the staff themselves will then be more likely to want to continue the ban when the trial period is up.
