Paper Bag Shortage Pushes Stores to Reward Reuse
Connecticut supermarkets and chains across the state introduce incentives for reusing paper bags amid a price and supply squeeze. Merchants report bag production shrinking 15 to 25 percent as mills cut output to cut costs, while shoppers hoard essentials like toilet paper. Stores offer trading stamps, rewards, or other perks for customers bringing their own bags or returning used bags, with some replacing bags with cardboard boxes and encouraging customers to minimize consumption.
