Single-use plastic bags being eliminated from some Giant Eagle locations

Giant Eagle to discontinue single-use plastic bags

ERIE, Pa. (KDKA) - Beginning today, Giant Eagle is eliminating single-use plastic bags at its Erie locations and that will soon trickle down to our area.

So, what does that mean?

Giant Eagle will incentivize using environmentally-friendly reusable bags.

Paper bags will still be available, but it'll cost you a dime per bag.

Reusable bags will be available to buy for 99 cents each.
