Comment on Imagine if all this discount programs were linked not to the card, but to the bag. Bringing the same rugged bag with a chip could've become a new normal.

  Even better, let’s start making reusable totes in the US and cut that ratio down, so this is no longer true.

  I can say, with insider knowledge, that the reusable packaging industry could start cranking out totes any time, should demand (or, better, legislation) prove sufficient.

  Wouldn’t hurt the industry at all, either, as sustainable single-use packaging - much of which is shifting to paper -is heavily on the rise.

    The ones I use were made locally, from cotton produced in this country so the threshold is way lower than 400.

    To go one step further, make them yourself out of old cotton clothing.
