Planning on heading for Freshmart? Don’t bring your re-usable bags.
The province has announced grocery stores and other food retailers should not allow customers to use their own reusable bags or boxes.
According to the government, larger retailers can have more than 50 customers, as long as people can still maintain two metres of physical distance. “While this order does not apply directly to the retail food and grocery industry,” says the Government Website, “the spirit of the order should be followed.”
