Really Good Records

Good morning customers - we hope you had, or are having, a lovely Christmas break. We are open today and all week 11-5, closed Sundays. As you may have heard in the news, plastic bags will be rising to 10p as soon as 2020. As a small business we don't currently charge for our bags (all part of the service, guv). We are not about to start charging either (although never say never). However, we do give an awful lot away which costs us a fair bit in bags a year. We therefore ha...ve a small request for our more regular customers. If you have any Really Good-branded carriers at home, stuffed in a cupboard etc, please either drop some spares back into the shop the next time you're popping by OR please make a point of bringing one with you in the interests of re-suing. It all helps. Meanwhile we'll be looking at alternative carrier options in the coming months. Many thanks - see you n the shop soon. Jim and Paul https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-46689684
