Penneys shoppers will face a small new charge from next week, as the retailer begins charging for paper bags in a move to reduce single-use waste.
Starting Monday, all paper bags—regardless of size—will cost 15 cent each. The company says the change is part of a broader effort to make its operations more sustainable and encourage environmentally friendly habits among customers.
