Plastic bags are everywhere, it seems. We shop at Target, buy a few items, and the purchases are put in a plastic shopping bag. Buy a pillow at Bed Bath and Beyond and it comes in a big plastic bag. Pick up some juice at 7-11? Plop, it is placed in a plastic bag. At the grocery store, doing the weekly shopping, we easily end up with 20 plastic bags. Sometimes, the items are double bagged. The salmon fillets we got at the fish counter was first put in a plastic bag and then into another bag at checkout. Does the Sun or another paper get delivered to your home? It comes nicely protected in a plastic bag. More recently, just to be safe, the newspaper is wrapped in two plastic bags. Oh yes, we even purchase plastic bags to protect frozen baked goods, store leftovers in the frig, or to throw our garbage into.
