Smith's Grocery is no longer doing plastic bags
This is part facebook-rumor... and part fact.

The facebook rumor post was on our towns facebook group. The lady that made the post said, that the manager of our local smiths said, that they will not order any more plastic bags. When the store runs out, they are out. Paper bags will be $0.10 each or you can buy reusable bags for ~$5 (or bring your own).

The facts are that Smiths has said they will phase out plastic bags by 2025. That makes the crazy-person-on-facebook-post sound a little less crazy...
