For pre-weighing we use small plastic baskets about 5 by by 8 inches-
they are 5 for a dolar at Dollar General here. They easily hold a pound
of produce and make a nice display. We dump them into t-shirt bags or
the customer's bag. The board at our market is planning on ordering
canvas shopping bags to sell to customers with the market logo as a way
to cut down on plastic.
