Little savings really add up at Wheatsfield Co-Op when shoppers take their groceries home in reusable bags instead of paper or plastic bags. The money saved – 5 cents a bag – totaled nearly $500 in June, which the store donated to KHOI as part of the Co-Op Nickel program. Wheatsfield General Manager Linda Johnson (far left) and President Rachel Dakarian (far right) present a giant check representing the multiple nickels to a grateful KHOI Treasurer Ruth Wiedemeier and Board Secretary Tom Beell (center).
