Me too...but then I remember that I keep some foldable one's in the bottom of my purse...and that usually saves the day. I am on the verge of going for these...as they fold up even tinier it seems...

Yeah, I'm a reusable bag junkie. If I had already bought something this wootoff and unlocked free shipping, I would get a few, but the last couple haven't had much I like, so I don't really wanna get just these.

Not me. I use them every time I go to the store
Keep them in a spot by the door
It will become second nature.

These would be great for traveling. I always need extra bags for gifts I purchase that don't fit in my suitcase when it is time to come home.

Wish it gave a weight limit...like can I only put a couple rolls of tp? or can I use it for produce and canned goods?

I did unlock free shipping, and could use more shopping bags... but these don't look like they'll hold much. Does the bottom of the bag fold out so it stands on it's own? Or is it more like a skinny tote bag?

I got a chuckle out of the tag it says you can put your name and address on. Do people just walk off and leave their grocery bags at the store. Or if you drop them....will someone track you down at home just to return your $1.99 bags?

Yeah, I have them by my door. And even a few in my trunk, lol. I guess it's about getting BACK into the habit. I used to use them all the time, now I don't know why I keep forgetting.

OBVIOUSLY they double as luggage tags, lol!

Our county just started charging 10 cents for every bag at the store. So I forget mine in the car, but I make a point of going back out while my cart waits patiently in line.

No way I'm paying a dollar a week for bags.

Two bags for two bucks, though, makes it worth keeping them in every briefcase, bike bag, glove compartment, jacket pocket, and stroller in the house.

Yeah, this is the worst Woot'Off ever...again...again again.

Since you asked so nicely, I bought 3. Wait, I did that before you asked... are you psychic or something???

I've always thought that was a good idea. It would definitely remind me to bring mine inside. Where I used to live, there was a reminder to bring your bags inside on all of the cart returns, so it was easy to remember before I went inside.

I think if they were a bit larger/sturdier I would. I get why they are very small and compact, but it wouldn't hold much for me. When we go grocery shopping, it's to last until the next paycheck, lol.

Forget the shopping bag. This is great luggage tag with dirty-undies bags tucked neatly inside! The one thing I frequently forget when I travel is a plastic bag for dirty clothes. THIS solves my problem. I'm in for 2 and and get to unlock shipping! Woot! Woot!

Just keep them in your trunk, and you don't have to remember to bring it from home. We have about 5 or 6 in each of our cars. (Some nice and big and sturdy, and some… well, kinda crappy. But they work.)

And after you unload them at home, either immediately bring them back to the trunk, *or* just hang them on the front door/garage door handle, so you can easily snag them the next time you go out to the car.

Seriously, it's easy to get into the habit.

OKAY you've convinced me! I hadn't thought of that, and it makes perfect sense for me. These are way better suited for traveling and being folded up than the sturdier bags I have. Thank you for enabling my reusable bag addiction. I hope you're happy.

Or to put your shoes in....in your luggage

ThunderThighs wrote:Have more info. They don't expand in width. They're a skinny tote.

Thanks. I bought 2, my supermarket's (skinny tote type) plastic bags are only 21" x 11" so these bags are bigger.

OK, y'all sold me. I'm in for 5...because I'm a type A and like everything matchy-matchy.

Yeah I just measured....these are the same size as the ones I keep in my purse....same material. They are very sturdy. I carry can goods and all in those...I stuff my full too...so far never had any problems with it after many uses. It's the windbreaker type material that makes them fairly sturdy.

Deliriously! lol I'm just gonna add another ticky next to my personal "quality posts" tally sheet. I have tons of them, so Woot shows 0 next to my name so no one else gets jealous. :p

These sorts of bags are great, reusable gift bags -- a nice extra for the giftee.

Haha, I think you need to check again! It seems someone has caught on, and you now have 1!

Sigh. This sale needs to go away. I just bought 2 MORE sets for gifts.

ThunderThighs wrote:Ok, you guys convinced me. My Free shipping is now unlocked.

HAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!! Now you know how I feel ;) Now you just have to decide to buy more because the sale just won't go away, and what's a couple more dollars?

Just make sure that you wash them.
