Carrefour to Cull Plastic Bags from Stores in Spain

June 29, 2009: 02:08 AM EST
Carrefour has announced that it will stop using plastic shopping bags in all of its stores in Spain by the end of this year. It is apparently the first supermarket chain to take this step. Shoppers will now be offered reusable “long life” bags, but Carrefour has not disclosed cost details, raising doubts about how successful the move will be in today’s cost-conscious environment.
