I have 2 tables containing the data for same items:

STORE1
-----------------------------
Id      type            items
-----------------------------
1       FOOD            10
2       FOOD            15
3       SOAP            20

STORE2
-----------------------------
Id      type            items
-----------------------------
1       FOOD            15
3       SOAP            10
4       PAPER           25
5       SOAP            12


What I am looking for is one single query that would return me TYPE-wise
total number of items from both the tables. UNION does not help me. I
want the result as:

Type            count
-----------------------
FOOD            40              //10+15+15
SOAP            42              //20+10+12
PAPER           25

Thanks in advance,
-Satish
