I suppose you are at the mercy of the supermarket, then. Can you try a different one? As Bazz says,the Coles bags are sturdy, and although I'm within less than 3 minutes walk from a Woolwoths, I do a 10-15 minute drive to a Drakes/Foodland. Up the big boys. The local SA mob is better.

It would seem that banning the plastic super market bag meant banning one of the few plastic containers that was used more than once.

I remember when the garbage collectors used to collect bottles and make a bit of money on the side.
The Taxation got on to them and they stopped collecting bottles, shortly after plastic bottles became the rage; often wondered if there was a connection.

Hassy,

One box we greenies approve of, is a pine box about 2 metres long to put an old anachronisms left over from the 1960's in. What do you think of that box?

Good lord, a greeny that approves of chopping down trees. Sacrilege. How many trees do you reckon they have to chop down to make crazy paper bags?

Guess it depends on who the local delivery contractor is, but I tried that lot, & got too many squashed fruit & veg.
