Co-Opportunity Market in Santa Monica Bans Plastic Bags

Trumping the Recent Santa Monica City-Wide Plastic Bag Ban

I received this email from the Co-opportunity Super Market the other day and thought I’d share it with you:

Email From Co-Opportunity Super Market in Santa Monica

“In anticipation of the impending Santa Monica City-wide ban of single-use plastic bags, we have decided we will not offer any single-use plastic bags starting April 1st. Single-use plastic bags are the thin plastic bags you would get from any ordinary grocery store. We will still have our large plastic Co-opportunity bags available. We chose our bags because they are thick and durable, and therefore perfect to be reused; they also go above and beyond the proposed City requirements for multiple-use plastic bags.

Although we will still be offering you your choice of paper or multiple-use plastic bags, why not bring in your own reusable bags? If you do not have any reusable bags please we encourage you to ask any of our employees — we have a variety of sizes and styles available, you get years of use for as little as 99¢! For more info on the plastic bag ban click here.

To Thank You for choosing reusable bags, through March & April, when you shop with your reusable bags you will receive an entry form for our Gift Card Drawing!

TWO winners per week, One - $50 winner & One - $25 winner!”
