It recently changed its plastic grocery bags to the Hippo Sak, which uses less plastic while being stronger than traditional bags. It is also recyclable - that is, if you can find a recycler who will accept it (try Earth Works in downtown Spokane, if nothing else). Also, the green Hippo Saks that the store had when I was there a few weeks ago are made completely from 100% post-consumer recycled materials. It's great to see the store is able to promote and benefit from more eco-friendly products.
Of course, a re-usable cloth shopping bag beats a plastic one any day...
