    If they rip or tear or wear out, just return them to Sobeys (not sure about Price Choppers!!) and they will give you a new one.

    I mistakenly thought it was Metro's program but they didn't know what I was talking about when I asked about my ripped Metro bag!!

    Thanks - good to know! What is your source, please? I would want to print it out to bring it to the store in case they don't know about this.

    And do you know if IGA is included in this?

    This article says Sobeys Atlantic but my experience was here in Toronto and the cashier was the one who knew the policy and offered to replace the bag.

    This article covers Foodland and IGA!!

    Here's another blog post...

    Thanks baggypants. This is a great offer.
    Do you know if the bags ever go on sale? half price? Buy one get one free?

    Sometimes they give the bags away for spending a certain amount or buying something advertised....also, I've seen the bags with 10 Sobeys' points when you buy one...

    Personally, the Sobeys bags are the best. I love mine -- especially when I'm shopping and they're at home........

    Perfect! I have a couple that have torn along the seam...I would love to get them replaced.

    I just LOVE reusable grocery bags. I admit that I hated them at first and thought they were stupid, but that's mostly because I kept forgetting them in the car and it was very frustrating to have an entire conveyor belt full of groceries and no bags...but now I cannot stand plastic bags.

    Reusable bags hold way more stuff, seldom rip, and when you've bought something the kids shouldn't see (like a present or something), the re-usable bags HIDE it really well.

    Ive had several Sobey's bags replace. While cleaning up the other day I put all my sobey's bags in one place...omg I have a lot of them! I think they are breeding in my trunk.
