How likely is it you would shop at a Zero Waste Grocery in Chicago & pay a membership for heavy discounts?

This idea spawned from seeing successful markets opening in Europe:

-The Zero Waste concept would drastically reduce the amount of plastic literally floating around the city and sitting in landfills for generations, would help cut costs to you by omitting the packaging step in production would also lessen the amount of fossil fuels and other resources especially when buying locally and/or picking up in town in an eco-friendly vehicle.

-There is also the dream to make healthy & natural/organic items available to everyone at reasonable prices especially lower-income families.

-By paying annual memberships, the store would be able to further cut costs on products and offer them at discounted rates. And would offer memberships based on household income for a lower cost to some families and individuals.

-The market would consist mostly of bulk dried goods sourced locally whenever possible as well as some dairy, dairy alternatives, body care items and a small and responsibly gathered selection of fresh produce hand-picked frequently at farmers markets and local produce markets.
