From the Pay-per Plastic department:

On March 15th, IKEA is going to start charging $.05 per plastic bag at all of their U.S. locations. This is an effort to cut down on consumer waste, and I think it's a great idea. The plan is to encourage customers to use IKEA's reusable bags to carry merchandise out to their cars. My only question is, will there now be a bag security position at IKEA stores?

Y'know... I have a drawer full of plastic bags from the local grocery. If anyone's interested, the going price is $.04.
