At our store we began charging for plastic bags in January and its great to see the amount of people who bring their own bags, reducing waste. One thing the company can work on is recycling or even better, reusing the plastic hangers customers choose to leave behind from the Joe Fresh clothing line. We throw out hundreds of these plastic hangers each day which also causes waste in our landfills. Hello I am a cashier at Real Canadian Superstore (under the Loblaws banner) in Toronto.
