BETHESDA, Md. -- Most of us expect to carry bags home after shopping. In Montgomery County you'll soon have a financial incentive to carry bags to the store.
Starting Jan. 1, 2012, all retailers in the county will be required to collect 5 cents for every paper or plastic carryout bag provided to customers. Retailers include grocery and department stores, service stations and permanent booths in malls.
