Say No To Plastic Bags

Starting from July, Penang is on No Plastic Bag Campaign every Monday. More than 20 hypermarkets, supermarkets and even minimarkets participate in this campaign. So, remember, if you happened to shop on Monday, please bring along your recycling shopping bags. Otherwise, you got to pay extra 20 cents for each plastic bag.

In fact, all of us should support the reusable shopping bags. It is exchangeable for a new one after wear and tear. We just pay once to use the recycling bag for life. So, why not? This is the action to reduce the unnecessary usage of platic bags to save the world. Let's participate the campaign not only on Monday, but everyday.

I bought so many of the recyclable bag but always forget to bring when i went for groceries shopping..end up buy another one bag! Hehehe
But i agree with you..we only have to but one of it, and use the same one all over again until it tears.. :)
Hope more people will do the same ya?

Oh, so forgetful you are. Next time, you just put some in your car, so you'll not forget. Good idea?
