Giant Eagle will start offering new reusable grocery bags for customers next Monday that are made of fabric, and free.
The change is coming because of feedback from customers, said Giant Eagle spokesperson Jannah Jablonowski. She said shoppers were looking for a sturdier option to hold heavier items, like a gallon of milk. Jablonowski said these new fabric bags will be available alongside the paper bags at no cost to customers. Giant Eagle removed the cost for papers bagsThe chain transitioned away from single-use plastic bags in Cuyahoga County back in 2019.
The new bags can be washed and reused, and Giant Eagle is encouraging customers to use them just like their traditional reusable bags, by saving them and bringing them back for each shopping trip. There are 24 Cuyahoga County Giant Eagle and Market District locations. Giant Eagle has more than 470 stores throughout western Pennsylvania, Ohio, northern West Virginia, Maryland and Indiana.
