Don't buy them grocery bags, buy them a coolbot. They already turn away or throw away the kinds of things we actually want to distribute - things that aren't designed to move product a store is contractually or institutionally obligated to buy and which would otherwise not move. Things which have caused an epidemic of malnourishment in this country - which is starvation by another name under even more perverse circumstances.
