Today I went to Target and picked up a few items. For every two bags of M&M’s you purchase this week, you get a free, reusable shopping bag.
Although I’m not a huge fan of Halloween, these bags were simply too good to pass up (as were the M&M’s). I didn’t get to use my bags at Target, but I did carry them to Publix, the next store I visited, and had a lot of fun watching the look on the cashier’s face as she bagged my groceries…
One neat thing you should know is that for every reusable bag you actually use at Target, you’ll get a $.05 credit on that shopping bill. It will show up on your receipt as a Target coupon.
What a great way to encourage recycling!!

I’ve been using canvas shopping bags for the groceries for about six years. I shop at Safeway, and they have always given me five cents credit for each bag. I wonder if they will continue now that more people are using their own bags.
My local store does the same thing–now if I could only remember to actually TAKE the bags with me every time I go!
