Morrisons bring back paper bags

SUPERMARKET chain Morrisons is reintroducing brown paper bags for fruit and vegetables to save on plastic.

The bags – once a staple of greengrocers – will be available in all of the firm’s stores from today.

The 100 per cent recyclable bags will stop around 150million plastic versions from being used each year.

Customers taking their own containers to Morrisons’ butchers and fishmongers counters will also be able to earn 100 loyalty card points – the equivalent of 10p – every time.
