refillable containers at supermarkets
Refillable milk, butter, juice, etc. stations at supermarkets would eliminate such an enormous amount of wasted packaging. Think about bringing your refillable bottles every week to get what you need. This goes beyond the local level though - we'd need to get producers onboard. Taking it a step further would be to fill all the stations with locally produced food/drinks.

I totally agree. I have glass containers for all my kitchen foods and drinks. Just wish I could take them straight to the store to be filled and eliminate the middle man - PLASTIC.
