Overview
- H-E-B and its banners began handing out the free totes at 8 a.m. Wednesday at H‑E‑B, Central Market, Joe V’s Smart Shop and Mi Tienda locations across Texas.
- Giveaways are first come, first served while supplies last, and customers can buy extra bags for $1.50 each.
- This year’s design features Garner State Park on the Frio River as the third and final release in H‑E‑B’s state‑park series.
- The bag is made mostly from ocean‑bound plastic, meaning waste collected near waterways that is at high risk of reaching the ocean.
- H‑E‑B ties the effort to its Our Texas, Our Future work, citing nearly $1 million in recycling grants since 2021 that improved local programs serving more than 720,000 residents.
