Frequently Asked Questions


What is the Stop & Shop Community Bag Program?

The Stop & Shop Community Bag Program makes it easy for shoppers to support their communities and environment by buying durable, reusable shopping bags. A portion of each purchase goes to a local nonprofit organization focused on education, civic, health & wellness, hunger relief or military/veterans.

How much does a bag cost?

Each bag costs $2.50, with $1 of that purchase going to support a benefiting nonprofit in your community.

Where can I buy a bag?

Community Bags are available at all Stop & Shop locations. Look for them at registers and on the reusable bag rack. If you can’t find them, just ask a staff member where they are. They’ll be happy to show you! To find the Stop & Shop nearest to you, visit our site. You can also purchase these bags in bulk — they make great gifts for friends, family, colleagues and group members. Show them you care about them, the community and the environment!
