The last time we saw Sarah, she was the young hero of Paper or Plastic?. There, Sarah was trying her best as a new employee at Puritan Foods, a grocery store with more than a cart full of crazy customers and fellow employees. 

In Paper or Plastic: The Ice Storm, Sarah is back, but this time she is hastily given -- maybe tricked into? -- the job of assistant manager. Sarah is happy about the new promotion until she realizes that with great power comes even more grocery store insanity. Did we mention there's an ice storm coming?!

When the assistant manager suddenly leaves ahead of the bad weather, Sarah is left to deal with stubborn customers who just want to stand at a register and read a magazine. Then there are unruly kids running around the store throwing cereal and climbing on top of shelves. That's nothing compared to the strike organized by the baggers and a mysterious figure known as "El Dialblo."

Sarah tries to stay awake throughout the ordeal -- Puritan Foods is open 24/7 of course -- while also trying to smooth over the toughest obstacle of all, the cane-wielding head of Skybell Ice Cream. Will the striking baggers get a raise or just a bunch of bananas? Will there be anything left on the shelves? Will Sarah survive? The answers and laughs are in the forecast of Paper or Plastic: The Ice Storm.
