BAG IT UPHats off to Islington grocer Unpackaged who have got rid of all packaging - if you want to buy something - take your own bag or bags! Its amazing that just a few years ago the supermarket industry told us it was impossible to get rid of plastic bags - and now - bingo - we are all changing! Store owner Catherine Conway points out that saving on packaging helps the environment AND saves money - so consumers benefit financially too. The shop was opened by Green party mayorial candidate Sian Berry and is also supported by Mayor Ken Livingstone who said the idea was 'forward thinking' hoping other businesses follow the idea.
