Plastic bags - help!
Sep. 21st, 2003 11:54 amUsed to be, any grocery store that gave out plastic bags had to provide a recycling bin for plastic bags, and I've gotten into the habit of saving them all - store bags, Target bags, Strib-bags. I emptied out a big Cub box full of plastic so I'd have something to carry file folders in, and now my front porch is FILLED with them! They are expanding to fill all empty spaces, twining themselves around the ankles of unwary pedestrians. One reason there are so many of them is because last time I stuffed them in the car and carried them to a nearby mega-grocery store, I discovered they had gotten rid of their recycling bins (which I thought were required by law, but they apparently didn't). The 3 closest big grocery stores are the Cub and Rainbow on south Nicollet and the uptown Rainbow. I think at least one of those stores still has plastic recycling - anybody know offhand which one(s)?
