Customer Service Desk: Plastic Bag Reduction

Our initiatives to reduce the use of paper and plastic grocery
bags include:

• Instruction of our front-service clerks on proper bagging techniques.
  
• Bag reduction goals for every store.
  
• Communication campaigns to encourage the use of reusable bags.

(Estimate of the total paper and plastic grocery bags saved based on the average improvement of paper and plastic grocery bag usage since mid-2007)

Doing your part: Thanks to our customers opting for reusable bags, we save an average of over 45 million paper and plastic grocery bags each month.
