To the Editor:
While I’m all for conserving and keeping plastic bags out of our water, the stores were not ready for the rollout.
I have reusable bags everywhere except when I walk into a store. So far I have six Wawa reusable bags, and I haven’t reused one yet. Sunday I went to Acme and of course took the wrong car, so no bags. At the checkout I was told that they ran out of plastic reusable bags and I could purchase a paper reusable bag for 10 cents.
