Well, I am going to have to defend Jerry on some of this as clerks don't really think of how wasteful they can be.

I was at one of Dollar Stores a few months ago and I bought a can or two of soup and a box fabric-safe bleach. She was going to put these items in two separate bags and I told her put those 3 items in one bag. She seem surprised and asked if I really wanted them in one bag and I said yes. She wasn't thinking is all I can surmise; how can a box of fabric-safe bleach harm/contaminate two metal cans of soup?

I've used reusable fabric grocery bags for years and am starting to use the smaller reusable cloth bags for those quick trips to Wal Mart and these 'dollar' stores.
