You are! At Winco, before the ban, I used to get a credit of 6 cents per <br />bag. Now, I don't. <br /> <br />So the people who never brought reusable bags before but now do break even. The people who never <br />brought them and still don't are charged 5 cents a bag, raising the price of their groceries. <br /> <br />The people who always brought them and have stopped lose 11 cents a bag (the 6 cents they used to get <br />+ the 5 cent charge). And people like me have had the cost of their groceries go up. <br /> <br />I'M BEING PENALIZED BY YOUR ORDINANCE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE BEEN REUSING BAGS FOR YEARS. <br />THANKS FOR PUNISHING THOSE OF US WHO ALREADY WERE TRYING TO CUT DOWN ON WASTE.’ <br /> <br />Contact information: <br />Susan Iverson <br />Email: ronlybonlyjones@yahoo.com <br /> <br />Request Tracker #: 1698 <br /> <br />* <br /> <br />From: Lin Marie [mailto:hiketheworld@yahoo.com] <br />Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2013 1:59 PM <br />To: *Eugene Mayor, City Council, and City Manager <br />Subject: Plastic bags <br /> <br />Dear Mayor, council and city manager; <br /> I was so glad when Eugene decided to ban the plastic bags, for so many environmental and animal <br />causes!!! <br />
