How does a Fill-A-Bag sale work?

There will be standard size paper grocery bags available for shoppers.  Most of the items at the sale will not have have price tags.  Any of these items can be put into your paper bag.  Your paper bag can be filled to the level of the top of the bag (but not sticking out the top of the bag), and each bag will cost you $10.

Which items are not part of the Fill-A-Bag sale?

Any item that does not completely fit in a paper bag is excluded from the Fill-A-Bag sale, and all priced items are also excluded.  The priced items will be in a separate area or grouped to reduce confusion.  Any priced item must be purchased separately.

What if I only want a few items?

If you are purchasing items that do not have prices, but only fill your bag partially, it is still $10 for a partially fillled bag.  If you want you could bring a friend and buy a bag together.  Priced items can be bought individually.

Can I bring my own bag?

You can bring your own bag to shop, but during the checkout process fill-a-bag items must be packed inside the standard paper grocery bags for consistent pricing for all shoppers.  If you want you could shop with your own bag, then load the items into the paper bags before checking out.
