Why I like it:

• Brands I know and brands we use: Berts Bees, Hidden Valley Ranch, Glad Bags, etc. (I have a container of Bert's Bees at my desk right now! We never buy the cheapest brand trash bags. Last weekend we used multiple large Glad bags to haul trash up from the basement. We stuffed 'em full! Kathee likewise buys Hidden Valley Ranch products
• A nice dividend
