A Good Deal at Save-on-Foods

I've been taking my cloth grocery bags on my occasional trips to Donald's Market, where they are quite welcome. I've found the cloth bags not only hold way more than the plastic ones (without breaking!), but are also much easier to carry. Today I went to Save-on-Foods and discovered that not only do you get points for bringing cloth bags, but you also get money taken off your bill! Ok, so it's only about $0.01 per bag, but that's still cool. For some reason I never thought that Save-on would be friendly to these bags...it took the cashier ages to pack them, but she did a really good job and it was worth the wait. If this program was more well-known, I'm sure the use of plastic bags would be cut substantially.
