61. Yes...that's great for YOU..but what about Disabled or Elderly who
Edited on Sun May-22-11 08:39 PM by KoKo
cant heft those "full Canvas bags" because of their time and space?

Did you think of them? We should all "Young and Able" use these bags...but we shouldn't mandate them for those who can't deal with the WEIGHT. So for shoppers who are elderly or disabled ..if they can use them for some items they can shop for ...It's GOOD THING!

But, to trash or require MANDATORY CANVAS BAGS..for ALL...this is not good. We need to look at the segments of our society who can use the bags for "small items...minimal shopping"...but NOT TRASH those who have to do "MEGA SHOPPING" only once every two weeks or so...who need to use "plastic or paper."
