UPDATE needed: paper grocery bags

UPDATE: Holy cow! Are you guys hoarding bags for the revolution or what! Collectively you've delivered a small truckload of paper bags and, as promised, I am now responsible for getting the screenprinting ink from Benny's and putting the "carrot revolution" on our bags for your viewing pleasure. Among the fun involved with re-using paper bags is finding treasures like breadcrumbs and receipts from the Big K in 1998.. and old bags from stores with names like "Kerm's" and "Cassidy's"... KEEP THEM COMING! ~aaron

Hey there. We are totally out of paper bags right now. We depend on you, our faithful customers, to help us save money and precious resources on packaging. Do you, your neighbors or coworkers, have some paper bags saved up? Even if they don't shop at JLF, chances are they would be happy to share their bags. Would you mind collecting them and bringing them in? I'll even make an offer - if we get a whole bunch of paper bags in over the next week, I'll personally spring for a tub of screenprinting ink and will put our collectible logo on the new batch of used bags, it's the carrot revolution. Thanks for your help.

Hey there! First off, I love shopping at Just Local. That said, whenever my husband or I have brought in bags in the past, we always leave feeling like we dropped off our trash or something. I mean, we heard the call for bags and responded, then get a nasty look. What's up?

We'll bring in our bags as soon as we gather them up and clear them of receipts and other items of interest. :)

You guys rock. Keep feeding us the great food!
