Join The M.O.B

M.O.B stands for My Own Bag. Every Wednesday, SM Supermarket is going to be using brown paper bags for our purchases. You can also use your own environment-friendly bags for your groceries.This is going to be one of their shares on the preservation of the environment. They are now selling green bags for 35Php. Unlike before, you need to purchase a certain amount and products before you can avail their Green Bag. Thank God they made it easier now.

I was in SM Cubao last Wednesday picking up some veggies. Very timely. I have been wanting to experience carrying brown paper bags for my groceries (just like in the movies). Aside from that, I have always been thinking, why not use paper bags instead of plastic.
2 thumbs up for the SM Group of companies! I hope they use it like twice or 3x a week, not only every Wednesday.

About time our stores in the Philippines to go green. Pede bang magdala ng sariling bayong sa SM?

Dito sa Japan,uso ang eco bags--some of the supermarkets here would charge a 5cents(5 yen)if you want your stuffs in plastic.Imagine mo na lang kung araw-araw kang namimili at kung ilang plastic ang magagamit mo sa isang bilihan?Sayang din ang pera kaya I chose to bring my own eco-bag to help save the environment.

yah, its a noble thing for sm to do this, kaya lang sana nag promote or na-advertise silang mabuti, para makakapagdala ang mga customers nila, lam mo naman dito sa atin napaka bilis mag change ng weather, biglang umuulan, pano na lang yung mga nag-cocommute di ba?

Hi Leah! its a good thing you brought the commuting dilemma. I agree, most likely hindi applicable 100% kasi madami ang commuting.
