More Product Details
Dimensions:
Extra Large: 17" H x 13" W (NOTE: the interior tag on these bags may be labeled "large", but the dimensions are the same as listed here.)
Large: 15" H x 12" W
Small: 9.5" H x 8" W
Design & functionality
The extra-large size lightweight, muslin cotton bags are bigger than standard plastic produce bags found in most grocery stores, and they're great for oranges, broccoli and other leafy vegetables. The smaller size is great for a few pieces of fruit or small vegetables. Used with our produce savers, you can save money as you help the environment by dramatically increasing the shelf life of your fruits and vegetables.
Also great for grains and other bulk products to replace single-use baggies when packing dry snacks, nuts and lunch items (and they make great, customizable gift or party favor bags). Alton Brown of The Food Network's Good Eats featured these handy bags to cook stuffing in on a Thanksgiving episode!
FYI
The tare weight of these bags in conveniently printed on the inside tags so you can let the cashier know to deduct this from the weight of your purchase.
Materials
Organic cotton is a far superior alternative to chemical-laden conventional cotton. More and more farmers around the world are growing cotton without costly, harmful chemicals. Their yield is high and the quality of the cotton they grow is equal to or better than conventionally grown cotton. Their methods support biodiversity and healthy ecosystems, improve the quality of soil and often use less water.
Sustainability
Growing organically takes more time, requires more knowledge and skill, and, at least for now, costs a bit more. But it is worth it since it doesn't contain any hidden costs to our environment. This bag can help you eliminate thousands of plastic bags over its lifetime. Our wide range of reusable bags are also built to last, which saves both money and natural resources.

Comments about Product:
These bags came to me very quickly, thank you Reuseit. They are just what I expected, simple organic cotton bags with a nice sturdy drawstring at the top. I plan to use these bags for a sewing project with friends called crazy quilting. What each person decides to use their new creation for after that I am not sure but I plan to store small knitting projects like socks and gloves in mine. By julieta j

5.0 multipurpose, all good
Comments about Product:
These produce bags are great not just as produce bags but also useful to wash clothes in the delicate cycle of the laundry machine as to avoid stretching wool and delicate fabrics. It is also a handy way for getting them washed. I got a set ten years ago and are still are using them. Not one has ripped apart because they are very well made. I have gotten more as gifts and just to have a few more handy as I have started buying more from the bulk area in the supermarket. By Steve G

Comments about Product:
I bought some of these bags for ~ would you believe ~ putting live birds in! Yep. And any other Ringer / Bander out there will know exactly what I mean.I'm not yet sure how they compare, price wise, to the BTO ones. But, the size and quality are certainly good.
Just the one little niggle; I thought the draw string could be a bit thicker /stronger .....

5.0 Versatile
Comments about Product:
These Produce and Snack Bags will never see an apple or a candy bar. I knit once a week with a crazy bunch of gals and we try to come up with something unique for Christmas each year. I started storing "in-progress" knitting projects in the lovely bags, then I started creating iron-on transfers for them...socks or dishcloth or sweater or whatever. Then it hit me. Most of us bring small easy projects to our get-togethers (it is impossible to knit lace and carry on a spirited or hysterically funny conversation) and I could make each person a personalized bag to tote from home to meeting and so on. I can already see "Divine Diane." I've had a batch of these bags for more than 4 years and they are still as good as new. And yes, they get washed regularly. I don't put nice, clean yarn in a dirty bag. Life is too short to knit with poor yarn. By Sioen R

5.0 Good but fresh greens need plastic, too
Comments about Product:
I love these bags -- great for everything from dry bulk goods, to keeping my roma tomatoes together in the drawer, to storage of freshly harvested sprouts and leafy greens.For stuff that tends to wilt, I use the cotton inside a plastic bag. Keeps the leaves fresher longer and the cotton does a great job of absorbing any moisture so the greens don't get slimy.

2.0 a little bummed
Comments about Product:
Was really looking forward to these, but was a little bummed when they arrived for two reasons: 1) I thought I was getting 4 in a package instead of 1 (clearly my error) and 2) my produce does not stay crisp very long in them (duh, it's muslin). I think $4.45(plus shipping) for a single, muslin bag is a bit much, maybe because I support localism more than fair trade.Lessons learned: 1) read the information page a little more closely before ordering, and 2) try the polyester bags as an alternative to turning every faucet, handle and vase in my kitchen into a plastic bag drying rack. Or have a little fun with DIY night.

5.0 muslin snack bags as book bags at school
Comments about Product:
This product is great! I use them in my 2nd grade classroom as book bags. They are durable enough for 7 year-olds to use on a daily basis for carrying and storing their reading books. I first bought a set of 20 for my classroom 3 years ago and those bags are still in great shape! By Jane A

5.0 Durable, versatile, sustainable,
Comments about Product:
Long lasting in every way! I use these every day and have had the same handfull (both sizes) for over a year. Crumbs shake out easily, and all produce stains have washed out quickly. Though they are machine washable, they hand wash and hang dry quickly! I love the basic look, I think that adds to their "long lasting" quality. My other snack and misc carry bags are prints that I get in & out of the mood to use but these are ever handy in any situation. I've also used the small bags to carry toiletries & make up products, and the larger size has come in handy to carry a change of clothes. I often keep these in my pack or purse "just in case".

5.0 Love these bags
Comments about Product:
Every time I went to the organic farm to get my vegetables I kept thinking there has to be a better way besides using the plastic bags provided at the farm. I was so happy to find these cotton bags, they work wonderfully, and I can now shop without guilt. When I get home I just transport the produce items to another container that I keep in the refrigerator. When they get dirty I just throw them in the washing machine. The best thing is I never have to use another wretched plastic bag. By Sandra S

3.0 Organic Cotton Muslin bags
Comments about Product:
I like the muslin bags except they are too big to be snack bags. (for pretzels or goldfish) I ordered them because they were much cheaper than the other snack bags that I have seen. I would love for them to be smaller! I use them to put my children's whole snack in which does work great, just not what I intended. By Melissa H

5.0 Fantastic for packing...
Comments about Product:
I have a whole set of these bags to use for things in my luggage ie: shoes,toiletries,dirty laundry, etc. These xl bags are perfect for a pair of shoes-or 2! I also put all my "dirty" laundry folded up in one so my other items stay clean. I also use them to put cat food in when I have to send my cat to a friends house for extended stays, and birdseed from bulk from my feedstore. So many uses beyond the grocery store.... By Jennifer S

5.0 Easy to carry and use Keeps fruit fresh
Comments about Product:
I use this bag when I shop at farmer's markets. The bag lets the moisture out, so the fruits and certain vegetables last longer. It did not work well with leafy green veggies; the leaves wilted after a few days in the refrigerator. On the other hand, my potatoes and pears are still fresh. The draw string works well to keep the produce in the bag and is easy to open and close. By Lindsey W

5.0 Wrap and Tuck string for a tight closure
Comments about Product:
These bags are fantastic for buying bulk items: beans, nuts, dried fruit, spices, granola, grains, seeds, dried coconut, corn meal, rolled oats, chocolate chips, etc... I recommend the laundry mat technique to wrap and tuck of the draw string to contain small items like sesame seeds and rice. After pulling the drawstring closed wrap the string around once and then tuck it under and pull to create a tight closure. It works perfectly! This design is so simple and multifunctional I can't imagine an improvement on the design. Several people have said that the weight of the bag is not a concern. I disagree. I only use them at stores where I know the sales person knows how to ring a tare. Most healthfood stores and food coops will do this, but you would be surprised. I would check first. For example a pound of organic almonds might cost 11.99. With a tare of 0.09 that would be an additional $1.07 per pound! This adds up if you buy all or most of your groceries in bulk. Not weighing the bag tare would probably cost me an additional $100/year. Buisinesses will offer to tare bags if there is enough demand. It won't hurt to ask. By John S

Comments about Product:
The muslin snack bag is disappointing - I thought it could be used to store greens in the refrigerator but they just wilted instead of staying crisp. I trust that the bags will be fine for hardier fruits and vegetables and for dry snacks. They are light and easy to use, that's a plus. By Ashley P

5.0 Be even MORE green at the grocery store!
Comments about Product:
I purchased these bags to replace the wasteful produce bags at the grocery store. This purchase was to increase my supply because I am sometimes left without them when they are in the wash. The large size bags are REALLY big compared to the small ones. I wish there was a medium! The small will hold a couple onions or apples, while the large is about the size (maybe a little bigger) of a plastic produce bag (but WAY sturdier). They are so versatile - I keep one for my iPod and headphones for the gym - and they are easy to clean. I sometimes accidentally put them in the dryer and they shrink A LOT, so you want to be careful with the small ones - I think I'll purposefully put the large ones in the dryer, though. They do weigh more than plastic bags and although they are marked for the cashier to tare them on the scale, I seriously doubt many cashiers know how to do this, even if they are able to. Wegman's grocery stores allow you to weigh and print your own labels, so I just weigh without the bag and then put them in. When shopping elsewhere, I just accept that I'm going to pay a few cents more - I'm sure if I asked them to give me credit for the reusable produce bags along with the grocery bags, they probably would.

5.0 Perfect for intended use
Comments about Product:
Product use: The intention of the product is to serve as a reusable alternative to the plastic bags that are made available by grocery stores for things such as a produce and other stuff (i.e., purchasing rice or yogurt covered pretzels in bulk). This serves its purpose wonderfully. The only hassle is that it's easy to spill grains, such as rice. For things such as a produce or other bulk items that aren't as small, these are perfect. It's highly suggested that things like leafy fresh greens not be stored in these past the trip to the grocery store. Storage for fruits like apples, mushrooms, etc., they're not too bad. Construction: Built with organic cotton, the make of these are suitable for the intended use. Obviously, washing produce isn't a solid option in this respect. The drawstring helps secure the contents of the bag. There's a tag on the inside with washing instructions as well as the weight of the bag. Appearance: Plain and simple natural color. No logos or anything. Value: I'm neutral about it. I can see why these could be a problem - these cost more than the reusable bags probably four times the size. Because the are organic cotton though, I see the price as suitable. They are of good quality. Dislikes: None. By kathleen w

5.0 Wonderful Replacement for Produce bags
Comments about Product:
I purchased my first lot of these a few years ago and they work excellent. Some people have complained about the extra weight cost but unless you are drenching them with water I don't see how this could drive the cost up that much. Most of the produce is per bunch and the ones that require a weight measurement have not cost much extra at all. The drawstrings make them easy to close and keep the items in and when I get them dirty they are easy to wash. I highly recommend these for anyone looking to replace those awful produce bags in the grocery store. These bags are so light, easy to carry, easy to clean and affordable.I have recently purchased more of these bags and I use them all the time. I think it's great that there are also two sizes though I mostly use the large because I never know what type of produce or how much I will be buying. By romanetta w

Comments about Product:
I absolutely love these very practical bags - I use them for so many different things, including snacks, bulk herbs/tea/beans/rice at the grocery store, to keep utensils clean in a lunch bag. I just throw them in the washer and dryer - I don't worry about shrinkage because the size they end up are fine. I do prefer mesh bags for produce but for bulk produce these are so much better than using the plastic baggies! By Lydia C

Comments about Product:
As a long time recycler, opver 30 years, I was still struggling with the holidays and a festive way to give my gifts. I came upon your bags and went with them. I made a gift tag out of fabric and pinned it to your bags. Put the gifts in and that was it. My family will receive their gifts from me in the same bag for eavery occasion from now on! I loved it! My family is coming around!! They were a little surprised that I asked for each bag back. By Margie R

5.0 purchased the bags for myself and for wr
Comments about Product:
I Purchased the bags to use for gift wrapping gifts as well as my own personal use. I try to always give gifts that carry a message and why stop at the wrapping? I have been using reusable canvas bags instead of plastic for a few years now. I would refuse to use the plastice produce bags for my produce and when it came time to check out- I often made things pretty difficult for the cashier with all the loose produce. I was pretty grossed out too when my bare fruits and veggies would be on the checkout counter, the scale, and finally touched by the cashiere and the bagger. That's so much exposure to additional germs and grime. The bags now serve as a little piece of mind for me when I go to the grocery store. By Don G

5.0 Best Snack Bag
Comments about Product:
I own and have used many different types of snack bags over the years, and the Acme ones have the best quality and design by far. They are a heavier fabric material that keeps its shape well and protects the contents from crushing. The top stays open which makes for easy snacking. They are easily wiped down for cleaning and also come out great from the washing machine. They are good for both dry and wet (chopped veggie) snacks and would work for sandwiches - although I prefer wrap mats for sandwiches. Buy them - you will not be disappointed. By Margot M

3.0 Usually I just reuse plastic bags for my farmer's
Comments about Product:
Usually I just reuse plastic bags for my farmer's market purchases, but these bags are a nice alternative (albeit a lot more expensive). They are strong, but a bit bulkier than reused plastic. Haven't tested them out in the fridge yet. Don't know how the material's permeability will affect freshness. Actually, I'm using them more as craft bags to tote my yarn and knitting projects...

These bags are a great step in making my household free of plastic bags.

I'm still trying to work out a system in my fridge. Because I cannot see through them, I often forget what I bought. Keeps me on my toes. By Diane K

Comments about Product:
I recently ordered your muslin and net organic bags and I am so pleased with them. The stores have no problem with them. I leave the bag a little open at checkout so they can check inside. I washed them first in cold water and let them drip dry and they shrank about an inch in length so the small bags are not as useful as the larger ones. I leave produce such as carrots in the bags in the frig. Thank you for helping the planet. Good-bye plastic bags. By Lisa R

Comments about Product:
These are great little bags. I take them to the farmers market where everyone oohs and ahhs over them. They are so handy and great for keeping produce in the frig as well. It is the complete opposite of a grocery produce bag - organic, does not effect the favor of the produce, reusable, washable, strong, durable and easy to open. I just love them! By Mary R

Comments about Product:
We are a teaching nature center and one of our field trip activities involves "mystery bags" that the students use - we wanted to use something reusable and environmentally-friendly to promote our values. The small muslin bags were perfect - durable and well-made. We stamped them with colorful animal stamps and they're perfect! By Blue C

Comments about Product:
These are great for the bulk items at your grocery store instead of plastic -- use them for nuts, flour, grains -- simply use one of the twist ties in top as you would a plastic one to indicate to the checker what item you have. I transfer to glass jars at home. I use the mesh bags for produce so the checker can see what's inside. By Curtis D

Comments about Product:
I love these bags! I always take my compact bags to the produce stand, but it is hard getting the smaller items together to put on the scale....things like beans, okra, etc. These cotton bags have totally solved that problem! The vegetables go in there, on the scale, and then in the big bag! Problem solved! Now I leave the produce stand with as many plastic bags as I came in with. ZERO! By Marilyn W

Comments about Product:
When I saw a young lady using these bags at my local market, I just knew I had to have them. She told me about your website and I ordered immediately. After I got a selection for myself, I bought some for my parents - and we LOVE them!! I can shop virtually guilt free, the SKU stickers from the store peel right off, and the small bags are great to store veggies in the crisper drawer in the frig. My one and only suggestion is that I could do without the tags that come on each individual bag at the time of shipping. Other than that - a wonderful and earth-conscious product. ~Thanks! By Susan F

Comments about Product:
ACME Bags are well-made and have a multitude of uses. I like using the muslin bags for produce items like broccoli and asparagus that tend to get caught in the mesh bags. I have also found that the large size bags are just right to use as travel shoe bags (place a pair sole to sole). ACME Bags are an excellent value and I appreciate that the company uses fair labor/trade practices. By sigrid b

5.0 Great price, and an even better product!
Comments about Product:
Great price, and an even better product! I have been wanting a natural, reusable-bag solution, for this purpose, for years now. And boy, am I satisfied with these... Lite-weight, made of a natural material, washable and sturdy, but best of all they replace those nasty little plastic baggies. What more could you ask of a product? Their smaller sized bags are perfect for nuts, herbs, and small veggies and fruits. But for your larger fruits and veggies; apples, tomatoes, pears, spinach, potatoes, etc...you really need the larger sized bags. I recommend purchasing at least 5 of each size, cause when you get them you will have wished you bought more. I absolutely love this product! Thank you, ReusableBags.com! By Lisa E

These bags are a pretty good product. I got the small ones, though, and they're a little bit too small for my needs.

I think these bags are the best! I own several, and have given several away as gifts. I keep my produce in them when I place it in the fridge. It keeps the produce nice longer than the plastic bags. I just take them with me to Farmers Market every week. I own the large ones and the small ones. I can fit broccoli, aspargus and cauliflower in one big bag. They are also good for apples and oranges. I keep bell peppers, green onions, cilantro and things like that in the small bags. They do wrinkle when you wash them, and I don't iron, nor do I care about wrinkles. By Sharyn O

Love 'em. What a wonderful idea. Especially nice for shopping at the co-op or health food store, where you scoop your dried beans and what-not from the big containers. One hint- if buying vanilla beans (or any other really expensive by-the-ounce good), take them out of the bag to be weighed at checkout. I let them weigh them in the bag at first, and almost got charged double! Lucky I realized the bag made a difference! Anyway- great produce bags, furthering the rage against a throwaway world!

Comments about Product:
I find these produce bags are good for bulk bins items that would fall through mesh bags -- flour, rice, corn meal, lentils, nuts, chocolate-covered anything. But because of their weight, they are not ideal for very light items, unless your grocery will weigh the bags for you and then subtract the weight. Also, some checkers dislike them because they need to peer into the bag to verify you have not cheated and labeled an expensive item with a cheaper code (eg, calling pine nuts split peas). It is better to turn the bags inside out before washing in the washing machine. Also line-dry instead of placing in the dryer. By J Amara B

My husband and I have been using the small cotton produce bags for going on 4 years now (and have never had to replace them because they are so durable, even after weekly washes). Whenever we check out at our grocery store or farmer's market, we are inevitably asked where to buy this great product. This year, as part of our "sustainability Christmas," we purchased sets of the produce bags for our (not so environmentally conscious) families- it's great to see our plastic-bag loving parents dutifully toting the produce bags to the grocery store now.

I am on a mission to rid my family of plastic bags! My dad used a plastic bag to bring his lunch into work so I gave him the large cotton muslin one to use instead. He surprising has embraced it and uses it everyday! I also bought the snack sized cotton muslin one. It is really to small to hold more then two apples: I used it for little [non=food] items that I would normally stick in a plastic baggie - for example last week I went on a trip and I put hair bands, bobby pins, earrings and my rings in it. [I also bought the large cotton net bag. That one I actually used for fruit. I put about 5 apples in it and had no problems at all - I could have put in several more. I also agree with other comments the names are a bit confusing but this one is perfect bc you can see through it. I recommend it to anyone and everyone!] By Nancy C

Comments about Product:
A GREAT purchase. I've gotten several batches over the last three years and now use them for all produce and bulk goods. They even hold flour well- the older ones are getting a little thin with repeated washes, so they make a little "puff" of flour but it's minimal and beats the thin and gross plastic in strength, reusablity and the positive impact on the environment any day. People at the market respond favorably (customers and help alike), and they even started carrying them for sale in the produce department. By Melody S

Wonderful little produce bags! The small bag can hold up to five large pears or six apples, and I have filled the large bags with oranges and bunches of broccoli. The bags are nice and soft after washing with no noticeable shrinkage. A very ripe tomato, deciding to burst in my too packed car trunk on the way home from the grocery store, left no stain after cleaning. My shopping kit includes three cotton produce bags each, of both sizes, stuffed into my Envirosax set. No more plastic bags for me...ever! By Joyce B

Comments about Product:
Love 'em!! Interesting too, how the cotton produce bags [by design, and simply by their "newness" in this consumerist, disposable society we live in] create a necessary dialogue with checkout personnel in the grocery store. Two things I've found when using these lovely bags are: a) staff has not been trained to take the tare weight of the bag first OR b) scales simply aren't designed to get the tare weight of a product container I know that as more and more people get used to re-using items, store personnel will catch up!! It's also funny how doing something that they used to do in the "old days" like reusing bags, has suddenly become the most viable option again! By andrea f

I have really loved the other bags that I have purchased from you, but I am disappointed in the cotton produce bags. I was under the impression that "mesh" meant that there were small holes in the material and you would be able to see inside the bag. I plan to return these bags because they are solid. I intended to use them in the produce department of the grocery store. The clerk in the grocery will have to open each bag to determine the produce inside. The young people who work the bagging end of the operation are already displeased with me because the cloth bags do not fit on or hold open particularly well on their counter top as they attempt to fill them with my groceries. I smile, make some comment about the environment and help them bag. I really don't want to have the check-out clerk irritated with me also! Do you have a product that is see-through for this use?

5.0 I really like these bags
Comments about Product:
I really like these bags. I will agree with previous reviewers that "mesh" is not really an accurate description of the material. They are more like lightweight canvas. What most people think of as "mesh" (i.e., a fabric with see-through holes) are actually called "net bags" for this brand. I would recommend the "mesh" bags if you DON'T want to be able to see the contents of the bag and the "net" bags if you DO want to be able to see the contents of the bag. I also bought the ACME Stuff Sack to transport these bags. Love 'em. These produce bags in combination with my Envirosax have allowed me to go completely bag-free. Yea! By Dustin M

Comments about Product:
This is a nice bag to have when making trips to the store. I dedided to go for the smaller one since I don't buy much fruit. I figured I could at least put 5 apples in it. NO. It only holds a nice size onion and a few cloves of garlic. This is still a nice bag, but if your looking for a fruit bag, get the big'un By Bonnie L

Comments about Product:
I felt so proud to use my cotton produce bag at the supermarket. I even took the little tags to give to anyone interested in purchasing them. I haven't used a produce bag since and it feels great. I'm using them for other things as well, like little totes for organizing things in my purse and baby bag. I think I'll try and see if my local grocery store would be interested in making them available for purchase! By Jennifer W

5.0 Very nice bags
Comments about Product:
Very nice bags. Although I've found that they are not so light that you should ignore weighing them empty to give the cashier a tare weight. I found this out the other day when the cashier weighed my organic mushrooms, then out of curiosity she took them out of the bag and weighed them. It took 50 cents USD off the price! I was very surprised! I assumed they were light enough to not make enough of a difference.(Update: I just found that the tare weight is listed on a tag inside the bag as 0.1 pounds US) I noticed some people wrote some reviews about shrinkage problems after washing them. I haven't tried this yet. But you should note that the washing instructions are on a tag inside the bag. Which say cold wash only and drip dry. I'm betting a typical hot water wash for whites and then put in a hot dryer is what is making it shrink. By Mary B

I love the bags. I used some of them for my Community Supported Agriculture vegetables, and the others for craft supplies. They worked great for both and are the perfect size. They are called mesh produce bags, but are really not mesh at all. They don't have holes in them, so the name is a little misleading, but I like them better the way they are than the way they're named! By Astral C

I bought the large and small cotton bags. I love them & feel so good that I am no longer throwing away all those plastic bags. You will need the large bags for items like a bundle of banassas or several ears of corn on the cob. The small bags are good for avocados, peppers, onions, garlic, etc. The drawstring on each bag is nice, keeps all veggies & fruit secure! Enjoy, Karen P. By Raphael K

Comments about Product:
Really good product. What can I say. It's handy, sturdy, & looks clean & it looks like something that will last for many years. I like the draw string. I also like that the tag has the Tare weight on it. I use it at a local health food store & of course they readily accept it. I haven't used it at a big chain supermarket yet, but probably will soon & see what they say. I prefer this over the net bags because certain odd-shaped items, such as bananas, can get stuck to it. I highly recommend the mesh bag, but of course either are good depending on what you use them for. By Sharon G

Comments about Product:
I've been using the cotton bags for my kids lunches. I have two kids, a 2 year old and a 7 year old. Both of them use the bags for their lunches and their snacks. They aren't leak proof, being that they are cotton, so obviously I don't put anyting in them that can leak. I do use them daily for their sandwiches, chips, crackers, etc. I get great satisfaction out of using them knowing that I am helping to contribute to the health of our environment and our families. They are easy to clean, just drop them in the laundry. The items that I put in their lunches that may leak or smoosh (like fruit) I put in glass containers (found them at Target). Haven't had any complaints from either school about either product. Love them. By Jan P

I love my canvas produce bags. We bring our large canvas bags for bagging all our groceries. But the small/big canvas produce bags stop you from using the plastic bags for your produce.I use them at the Farmer's Market and the grocery stores. I recently bought more for my sisters and nieces. I told them I am trying to save the world, one bag at a time, but the bags are winning, so I told them to let me know how many bags they need and I would buy for them. They loved them so much, they wanted the website to buy more. Yay! a few more people trying to save the world. Think you could make a medium size? Julie Love Sacramento, CA By Kathy R

Comments about Product:
I haven't used them yet, but washed them first and they shrank beyond all belief! I looked inside too late to see that they are cold wash (which I did) and line dry (which I didn't do). I'm very sad they are so small now. They held up well to the washer and drier though. I still like the idea and will use them for smaller produce, but perhaps you can either make extra large ones so I can dry them or make some that can be dried? I have a small apartment and not much room to hang stuff to dry. By kathleen q

Comments about Product:
I like the bags but for what i'd like the sizes are a but weird . We've used the big ones to pack 6 apples for my husband and 3 kids on hikes or trips to museum etc but I think the mesh bags would work better for produce bags. The small ones weren't as small as I would have liked . I do like the size of the small. I pack my son a few snacks ..like a pudding cup and an apple with a spoon can all fit. He likes that because he is 9 and is too 'cool' for insulated lunch boxes. I was looking more along the size to pack individual items. Like to replace the snack packs of goldfish. I'd love a samller size like that, you know to just give the kids a portion of chips, pretzels etc. The small size is too large for that. By Crystal A

I used a large one as a shopping bag on a recent trip to the grocery store and it fit a bag of hamburger buns, 2 pounds of chicken, and some apples! I was worried that the check-out staff would be annoyed and confused but I haven't had a single complaint and I go to several different grocery stores. A great investment! By nicole s

Love, love, love! I am so glad I spent the money. I can finally reduce my guilt every time I buy a mountain of veggies. The small is really small...think a few heads of garlic, bulk foods, a couple of apples. The large is perfect for long or oversized vegetables....think leafy greens, broccoli, celery. Definitely buy the other kind as well. It will round out the sizes and you can see thru the other style. The mesh cotton ones are not see thru. Not a big deal if you leave the top uncinched, the checker can easily identify what is inside. By Charrie H

I purchased 10 of the organic cotton mesh produce bags. I give them as "green" gifts putting your stainless steel water bottles, lunch carriers, vacuum seal hot/cold containers, sandwich wrappers, etc. inside them. I also use them to put wedding, Christmas, Birthday, etc. gifts inside, tying them up with cloth ribbons. They are a big hit. I used your colorful stringbags to place books, toys, etc. for baby showers and children's birthdays. I give out your website info with all the gifts.The partygoers also want the info so I write it down for them. It would be great if you included extra tags in the packaging so we could readily handout the website info. I get lots of questions as to where did I my stainless steel water bottle and lunch pail when I am out and about. I give your info out then also. Tnanks for the great products and speedy delivery.

Most of my produce purchases are just one or two of each item, since I am only shopping for two people. Once I started using reusable shopping bags, I started to feel guilty about the ridiculous amount of waste I was creating when I was coming home from the grocery store with five or more produce bags. I bought four small bags at first and I bought four more so I have a rotation when some are in the wash. The small bags will hold 1-3 bell peppers - for higher volume produce purchases, I would recommend the large bag. By Kristin C

Comments about Product:
Hi there! The Cotton Mesh bags are a hit. I love the idea of being a trend setter in grocery shopping and going one step further than just a mesh shopping bag, but mesh produce bags as well. The only draw back in the bags I purchased was that they are not see thru. What I mean is that the cashier has to open each bag at the store to see what is inside and the product code. I noticed it's not such a great idea to go shopping on a busy saturday afternoon....but they work just fine for Wednesday morning shopping. I will continue to use them but would love to see some kind of a see thru bag made. Thank you By Larissa M

Comments about Product:
These bags are great! The large size is deceiving, they look small but they really stretch. I can put a large head of green leaf lettuce in one without bruising it. I rinse them when needed in the sink and let them air dry so they don't shrink. Most of the stores where I shop give a 5 cent bag credit, so the weight is not an issue for me. The draw strings are a plus too, they make handy handles if you only buy a few things at the market! My kids use one for pool toys, they don't hold water. By Karen T

Comments about Product:
I love this item...! Each bag holds loads of produce (a dozen apples easily fit in the bag) and I feel good that I've been able to replace using the plastic bags in the produce section. I also have used this (as well as my larger canvas bag(s) when shopping at other retail outlets, (clothing, books, home improvement....etc). People comment that they didn't even think to bring their shopping bags beyond the grocery store... there have been some good discussions as a result. For some reason I didn't realize that these were not 'mesh' as in see-through... they are more like muslin---opaque, so when checking out the produce, the checker cannot see what's inside and sometimes empties the whole bag 1st... I'll probably try the other bags that are available to ease this. By Nadia O

Good size. These are not mesh, however. More like unbleached muslin. My local store sells small bags that are a lighter weight cotton, closer to a mesh.

5.0 We have been using these bags for a few weeks now
Comments about Product:
We have been using these bags for a few weeks now and like them quite a bit. They don't add much weight on the scale, they wash nicely in the machine, and they are plenty sturdy for frequent use. My one problem with the bags is the sizing. The small is a nice size-- large enough for two big mangos, for instance-- but not large enough for, e.g., a half dozen pears. The medium, on the other hand, is huge. I didn't try, but I bet I could put two cantaloupes in one, so they are too big for a half dozen pears. A size between the small and medium would be nice. All in all, I like these bags quite a bit. (Note, you do have to open them up to see what is inside. This isn't a problem for me, but some cashers may not like it.) By Helen N

Comments about Product:
I love my organic cotton mesh produce bags. I use them for dry goods (raisins, oats, baking soda, etc.) as well as produce. The experience of storing my food in cotton, as opposed to plastic, is a great sensory pleasure. Oh happy day, when I will be able to banish plastic bags altogether! By Yee T

Comments about Product:
I love these bags - I got 4 of the large ones. I've had them for about a month and they are VERY useful -- I've used them for cauliflower, leeks, left over parts for a stove we installed at my uncle's, clothing hooks from Lowe's. They're about the size of the normal plastic shopping bags, so anything going into those, you can put into these, and feel tons better. These also fold up very flat into my purse. I also got a string cotton bag and I use that for bigger, odd-shaped items. I'm putting together another order. I love that I never forget my reusable bags anymore. Fabulous! By Karen S

Comments about Product:
We are so happy that we no longer have to use the plastic produce bags! We have people ask us about the bags every time we shop. I do wish they were somehow see-through so I could tell what I have in my veggie drawer, and the bag with the onion retained the smell even post-laundering, but all in all, we're so happy to have an alternative.

Comments about Product:
These bags are great. I was sick of filling my reusable shopping bags with plastic produce bags so I decided to try these. The only issue was at checkout when most of the items had to be removed to be scanned and weighed, but the checkout woman at Whole Foods loved the bags so she didn't mind the extra effort. By Cory G

5.0 This is my second purchase of these bags
Comments about Product:
This is my second purchase of these bags. I use them every time I go to the grocery store to eliminate the need for plastic produce bags. The small ones are quite small, they only fit about 5 medium apples. The large ones are great though, for whole heads of broccoli, a dozen potatoes, etc. They shrink when you wash them, so best to buy the large size. In the store, checkers usually don't mind them, and if you put a piece of fruit at the top with the bar code sticker showing, it makes it easier for them. On paying for the extra weight of the bag, the tare weight of each bag is printed inside on the label, so you can show it to the checker, but most checkers in large supermarket chains don't know how to subtract the tare weight on their scales or registers. Yesterday, at Loblaws in Toronto, the checker gave me a reusable bag discount for each produce bag I used, which usually only goes for each carrying bag. She was interested in the product, so I gave her one of the "reusabelebags.com" tags I had just cut off the produce bag. By Viki C

I'm so glad to have an alternative to plastic produce bags and these fit the bill. They hold a great deal and wash up nicely.

These are very useful, though I don't get why they're called "mesh"? They're more like a really light muslin. I actually like that it's not mesh though as I could see using the bigger ones to buy bulk rice or cornmeal or something. I use the smaller ones in place of plastic baggies to bring things like nuts or pretzels to work for lunch. By Leah S

Comments about Product:
I love these bags. We can use them at the grocery store and then wash them if they get gunky or wet and we don't have to worry about bacteria build up. They have saved so many plastic bags for us! The are also great for bringing to the farmer's market. I was worried about their weight, but they are very light and don't add anything to the price. We have bought these as gifts for friends and they are great. Just be aware that they will shrink in the wash. By Starla K

5.0 I love the organic cotton mesh produce bags
Comments about Product:
I love the organic cotton mesh produce bags. I'm not using the plastic produce bags in the store anymore and even though you can recylce them, they can still end up in our lakes and oceans. The cotton produce bags wash well and keep produce fresh. The only problem I've had is that the check out clerks are confused by them. At first, I put produce in the bags like I did before, but they took it out, either because they didn't wan't to charge me for the weight of the bag or that they couldn't see what was in there. Now, I put produce in my cart, have them weigh it, and put it in the bags with varying results. Sometimes, I get my apples, onion and peppers all in the same bag. I'll keep trying and the more of us using reusable bags, the more people will know what to do with us! By Shirley S

Comments about Product:
I love the bags I purchased from your website. I purchased both size small and size large of the canvas produce bags. The only complaint I would have with these bags is that there is no in-between size. The "small" seems too small for certain things, but the "large" seems way too big. I would love an in-between size. Everything else about them in wonderful, though. They are sturdy and so easy to use. By emma s

These bags are of good quality. The problem is that they are not see-thru like a platic bag. So, if you have a bunch of them filled with your favorite vegetables, you cant tell without opening as to what is inside them. Also, the bags are deep and narrow (like they are supposed to be), but it makes cleaning them (making them reuable) rather difficult. By Danielle V

We like the bags very much. They are pretty strong. We have put a few through the wash and there is no fraying or pulling.

These bags are great! I love using them. The small size is sufficient for most items (beans, peaches, 4-5 apples, etc.) and the large size for bigger items (celery, lettuce).

5.0 I love these bags!
Comments about Product:
I love these bags! I have had the large ones for a while, and they are great for using at the grocery store, and also for storing produce at home. They are especially good for lettuce (if they are kept moist), and mushrooms. I just ordered the small size, and I had intended to use them for produce as well, but I discovered that they are great for storing my daughter's toys! She is 2.5, and has a lot of "sets" of toys, like a wooden pizza with toppings, and dolls with several outfits. These are great for keeping all of those items together, and the fact that they have a drawstring closure makes them easy to open, but at the same time, they can close so that stuff doesn't spill out. I ended up using all 6 of the bags I ordered for this purpose, and will probably order more for use with produce! By Mary C

Wow! I have been bringing my own grocery bags for years now, but not produce bags until last month.

I bought a few of several different bags so I could try each type out. The mesh ones are by far the easiest for the cashier to read the sku right thru the bag. By Ana S

The bags seem to be working out prefectly, and I am very happy to have saved some trees (I hope!). By Tara C

I love mine. I get the big ones. They are perfect for things like apples and oranges but when I get the small stuff... like beans... then it's a little large so I wish I had gotten a couple of the small ones too. That's my fault though. I think they're great and I love the strange stares I get from people when I'm using them... =) By Anna S

Comments about Product:
I like the cotton mesh produce bags a lot. But I wish they were bigger. They are trying to replace produce bags at grocerty stores that can fit several heads of brocolli or 2 bunches of asperagus with out complaint. And these bags just can't do it. They are too small. In general I like the idea and I think I purchased enough for my family but it's hard to tell if you can really use them for every produce purchase until you try them. By Heidi R

They are incredibly (sp?) well made and I am thrilled to be able to do away with those silly thin plastic bags they give you at the grocery store.

I am ashamed to admit that I often forget to take these bags with me when I go to the store. I need to start stashing them in the car. However, I am planning to purchase more of them to use as gift bags this holiday season. I'll embellish them somehow - with a ribbon or stamp - and they'll be less expensive then patterned reusable gift bags. Plus they may actually be reused for produce! They work great for produce - and for gifts, too, I'm sure. By Christina A

I feel great everytime I use them and I know it's making an impression on my children also. They're very economical and make a great addition to your reusable shopping tote. By Carlee C

The Produce bags are fabulous. They make it easy to buy lettuce, kale, and other bunched vegetables. You can feel the difference immediately in the amount of plastic bags you are saving.

Comments about Product:
I love these bags! Every time I take them to the grocery store or the farmers market, I get questions about them - namely, "where'd you get those?". I love bringing home produce or bulk food in these and transferring them to my own reusable storage containers. I love that I can wash them and use them endlessly, and no worries about harm to the planet or even landfill fodder. Even when they can no longer be used, because they are cloth, they will gently biodegrade. These bags are wonderful! By Sarah S

Comments about Product:
I LOVE my new produce (small-size) reusable cloth bags. Many other shoppers stop me in the store asking me where I got them and how I like using them. These bags are perfect for produce and bulk items such as nuts, seeds and pasta or rice. The bags are very sturdy and easy to use. When soiled, I simply handwash them in cold water and hang up to dry..they dry very quickly. Depending on the store, most checkers are okay with cloth produce bags, especially whole food or organic food stores. Checkers in the regular supermarkets can be a bit annoyed they have to open the bags to see what's inside or to scan one item. Nonetheless, I will continue using these bags.

I recently used my cotton mesh produce bags for the first time. The size is good for most fruit and the person running the checkout had no problem opening the bags to check the produce stickers. I was hoping the bags would be more mesh-like. They are a tighter weave than I thought they would be. I think a looser weave would be better for leafy greens which tend to be damp. By Patricia L

I really like using these instead of throwing away those little 'disposable' produce bags. After all they really aren't disposable for a very long time.

I don't bother with the small ones and always get the large. By Megan L

I've had my recycled cotton grocery totes for about 2 weeks and I absolutely love them! They are very sturdy- I know I've gone over the max weight for them a few times, and so easy to carry over my shoulder. They hold so much that I've used only 7 to do my major trip to the grocery store for my family of 5. I've taken to carrying a bag with me everywhere. These are such a wonderful investment. I feel good every time I say no to plastic bags. It's such an easy way to do my part in helping the environment. I also bought a few produce bags and am very pleased, although the cashiers are often puzzled as to how to handle the produce inside. You have a wonderful product and I plan to give your bags as gifts this Christmas. Thank you! By Jill D

These bags are good to use instead of plastic vegetable bags from the grocery store. The only drawback is do shrink a lot if you put them in the dryer, so if you don't have space to hang them to dry or know you'll forget,be aware of that.

Plus wait till people all look at you because you are NOT using the cruddy little plastic produce bags, that usually tear open before you even fill the bag! You will get noticed that for sure, people will ask you where you bought them. I hope everyone will switch to using cotton for their shopping, not just the produce bags but also give the stringbags and the canvas totes a try. You will be amazed at how much these bags will hold! For the sake of mother Earth...please switch to cotton bags! Plastic is NOT COOL anymore! By Christine L

I really like the bags. They're sturdy and hold up well in the wash, just make sure to hang dry them or they get wrinkly. The only downside is that grocery stores don't exactly make it easy to compensate for the added weight, although I have found that the bulk section of my grocery store will tare the bag first then let me fill it with rice or beans and then bring it back to be weighed. They're great for farmers markets! It makes me happy to not have to throw away a thing when I come home from my local market. By Jennifer G

Only downside is that the check out clerk needs to open them to access the produce code for the fruit or vegetable. Very little negative compared with eliminating those wasteful plastic bags that wind up trashing our Earth. By Taiji C

Comments about Product:
I thought these would be meshier (more like net), but in retrospect I'm glad they aren't because perhaps some produce would fall out. I also didn't think I'd use them, but I do. Am thinking of ordering more, and larger sizes. Appear to wash very well. By Kiri Z

Comments about Product:
These are excellent. I have some in both large and small sizes. The small size is pretty small, and works better for bulk grains or beans than for produce. For fruits and veggies, I recommend the large bag, which accomodates a couple pounds of carrots, a bunch of collards, or a head of lettuce with no problem. I haven't washed these bags yet, so I can't say how they hold up over time, but so far they have been really useful. By Jennifer W

Comments about Product:
I love these little bags. It makes me feel good every time I use them! The people at the register are a little confused to have to look inside in order to know what they're ringing up...but they have learned that it's really no big deal to peak inside. I think they are being educated too!. The bags are easy to use and if they ever need cleaning, they are really easy to wash. I'm am very pleased with the product and feel so much better about using them than plastic!! By Kristina G

Comments about Product:
These bags are great. The small ones fit 4 large apples (even after I accidentally dried them in the dryer). The drawstring close makes it easy for the checkout clerk to peak inside and close them back up quickly. I haven't used them in the refrigerator yet, but it's great to finally reduce the amount of plastic produce bags I use! By Amy G

Comments about Product:
The produce bags are great. They keep fruit and veggies fresh, and are very convenient size-wise. The only issue I've had is that at regular run-of-the-mill grocery stores, the check-out people have a lot of trouble seeing through the mesh and identifying the numbers on the fruit/veggie labels. This can be a bit awkward, so I'd suggest using them for natural/specialty grocery stores instead. By CAndace H

we just received our 2nd order of the large produce bags. We order from reusablebags.com often, and we are always thrilled with the products and the customer service. In fact, we accidentally ordered the wrong product -- reusablebags.com quickly responded and fixed our error. The bags are great, but please note that they do significantly shrink. I would go for the large over the small if you are buying over 4 to 5 apples, for example. Great product, great service, thank you! By Angie F

Well I placed both orders the night before I went away and when I came back your package was already there, while the other package I was waiting for took another whole WEEK!

When I was at the Farmer's market last weekend, I received so many inquiries about these bags! The large is really great for bulk items, and it eliminates the farmers having to give me their items in plastic. The looks on their faces were one of definite but pleasant surprise.

Love our bags!! They fit so much more than what they look like they can. We were grocery shopping and the checkout clerk said ok I think that one's full, but I was able to stick quite a few more items in it. I love how I don't have a 'Home Alone' moment when I'm carrying the bags to the car. They are so strong. I love the mini one that I can stick in my purse for all of those small quick purchases. When I get home and put my groceries away I feel 'lighter' when I'm finished because I don't have a wad of plastic bags to shove under the sink. By Kimberly B

First off I must say how good it feels to not have all of those plastic bags around. These bags are and have been put to great use. They are sturdy, reliable and extremely convenient.

Comments about Product:
I have a few dozen of these and keep them with several of your canvas grocery bags in the car. That way they are always on hand when we run into the grocery store. Also, my husband keeps several at work during the summer for when he buys fresh produce at the farmer's market in downtown Chicago. Since we buy fresh produce several times per week, we are pleased to keep multitudes of plastic produce bags out of circulation. These are an excellent product. Thanks and please consider making much larger ones as we buy a dozen apples or oranges at a time for our large family. We can't fit all of the green beans we need into one bag either. The bags are way too small for the produce needs of a large family. By Gwenn W

These are way better than getting all those plastic produce bags. The only drawbacks are that they weigh more than the bags, the checkout person has to look inside the bag, and the produce doesn't stay as crisp when storing in the fridge for a while (even though the company says you can wet the bag and that keeps the produce fresh, I did not have success with this).

Comments about Product:
I like these little bags. My only complaint is that in the description it says they are mesh bags, but what I received was just little cotton muslin bags not really what I expected. I like mesh bags because the checkout clerks can see what's inside without opening the bag...makes checkout quicker. The muslin also shrinks after they have been washed so my bags are a bit tiny now...next time I would definitely get the medium bags. But these little bags work just fine, they are nice and light and since they are untreated muslin I can use them when I make cheese too...an unexpected benenfit. By Lyndsay F

Comments about Product:
I just started using this bags two weeks ago. So far, I love them so much that I am buying more of them. They are very useful; lots of different uses. Not only to put your produce at the store for checkout, but I also use them for storage at home. I store my sweet potatoes, potatoes, onions, bulk beans, etc. in my pantry. I also store my produce in the fridge. My favorite use is to store my washed lettuce in it. My lettuce seems to keep fresh pretty good. I purchased the small and large sizes, and like both. But find the large size of more use. I like the tag on the outside, since I use it to label the contents. All my friends like them so much, that they want to buy them too. I can't rate the quality, since I haven't used them long enough. They do shrink after the first wash in cold water and air dry. But still large enough to be used. By Kathleen D

These cotton mesh produce bags are EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I have to restock our produce every week and have been frustrated by the number of plastic bags that we're using.

Comments about Product:
I've been using these bags for a few weeks now, and am generally quite pleased with them. The only major shock I've had is when I washed them before using them the first time. The instructions say to wash in cold water, but they don't specify whether or not machine washing is ok. I took the lack of specificity as a sign that it was fine to machine wash, but when I pulled them out (to let them air dry), I found some pretty major shrinkage. The large bags were about 10% smaller, and the small bags slightly less so. But even though they're smaller, capacity hasn't been much of a problem, though I'm only shopping for two people, so I tend to buy in smaller volumes. Checkers at stores seem to get a kick out of these bags. They see a mass of little white bags coming at them down the conveyer belt and wonder out loud what's going on. It slows down the process a fraction for them not to be able to see through the clear plastic to what's inside, but I've started positioning the opening of the bags to make for easy checker access, and everyone has been very good-natured about it.

Comments about Product:
So far, I've been using these bags to pick up produce at a Community Supported Agriculture farm. Most of this produce is not pre-washed so the bags get quite dirty. I just turn them inside out and rinse them off and they dry fairly quickly. They're too small to hold really bulky items like large heads of lettuce, etc. Great for transporting produce, not the best choice for storing most produce. Also, these are not see through bags.

I absolutely live these bags. They fit far more than the conventional plastic bags, and you avoid the double bagging issue because they are so strong! Every time I use one of these bags I am saving 2 plastic bags. Thats a good feeling. By kelly g

I love the canvas bags that I ordered. The squared bottom allow them to hold many items. I keep them rolled together in my car & use them for all of my grocery & other shopping.

I purchased several of the produce bags and love them.

These produce bags are a real find! Everyone at the grocery store asks me about them (so of course I plug reusablebags.com). I love the fact that I'm not using throw away plastic produce bags, and these are easily washed for reuse. I will be taking these to the farmer's market when it starts in a couple of weeks. They are sure to be a big hit there as well. By Kristin R

I love these bags, its a great way to avoid the use of plastic completely! They are very sturdy adn much larger than I was expecting.

I love the reusable cotton mesh produce bags. They are just the right size. The drawstring closure works effeciently. They are lightweigh and wash easily. They are problematic at stores as cashiers don't know what to do with them and even Whole Foods doesn't have a tare weight available for them. But it's still better than the plastic or paper alternative. By Jen W

I only bought 5 of these, but I am going to need 5 more. I always hated using the grocery store plastic produce bags and would try not to, but if I'm buying more than 3 tomatoes, it would just be inconvenient not to. And so ... I love these bags. And I could swear it's keeping my cilantro fresh much longer than usual. I feel good using these, and not just immediately throwing away bags when I get home from the store. I highly recommend these.

Comments about Product:
I find them to be very useful and a good way to save resources. I simply pile all my veggies in it, separate it at check out for the weighing and immediately put it all back in the bag once the clerk weighs it. The check out clerks in this rather non-eco friendly store were excited about the bags. Perhaps they will catch on. By Brenda G

Nice product - stronger than one would guess based on the photo. I stick the produce sticker (if it has one) on the outside of the bag so the checker does not have to open the bag.

Comments about Product:
These small bags are nice and sturdy. I tend to put my produce in them after the cashier has weighed them since they can't see what's inside. Once I forgot most of my large mesh carry-bags and these worked well in the interim. Carrying a bunch of these is pretty bulky though (which is part of why I didn't realize that I didn't have my shopping bags with me!). A friend of mine uses these for buying bulk grains at the store, too. By Sonya C

Comments about Product:
I love the idea of using cloth produce bags and these bags have gotten good reviews even at the store. I wrote the tare weight on the underside of the tag using a permanent marker and the cashiers have taken my word for it. My only complaint is that I washed one of the bags (so far) and it shrank considerably. I thought I liked the small bags, but I think the larger ones, after they are washed, will be just about the right size. By Lisa H

Correction on my earlier review: sorry, I spelled "privilege" incorrectly. And now I see the website said the bag was 0.09 lbs, not quite 2 ounces, which comes out to an extra 17 cents per bag if apples cost $1.99, not 25 cents. I don't know how to go back and edit my review. Lisa H. By Lisa H

Comments about Product:
I've just started using cloth grocery bags at my local Vons store. I love using my string bags, but I'm having trouble getting myself to use these cotton mesh produce bags for my produce. The main reason is that I weighed one (the large size) at about 2 ounces on the grocery store's produce scales. Today I bought some apples at $1.99 a pound. I calculated that if I used my cloth bag assuming a weight of 2 ounces, it would add another 25 cents to the cost of the apples. Maybe I'm cheap, but I don't want to needlessly pay an extra 25 cents per bag for the priviledge of using cloth produce bags. I need to talk to the cashier to see if she can subtract the weight of the bag from the total weight, but they all seem so busy that I haven't done this yet. I have the same complaint with the large net produce sacks: they are about a half ounce heavier than the mesh bag. By Jeffrey R

I have been an avid canvas bag user for a few years now and have always been able to find good quality bags at my local health food store.

A quick search online led me to reusablebags.com and the fine mesh produces bags I was looking for. These are fair priced, sturdy, and non-descript; perfect for bulk shopping. By Kathy Ellen D

Comments about Product:
I'm quite happy with the bags I purchased from reusablebags.com. My biggest problem with them is REMEMBERING I have them with me! (It's amazing how socially conditioned we are to just stand there passively at the checkout.) I use the bags mainly for grocery shopping. The cashiers and baggers seem to be totally thrown off by the concept, and I DO get many odd looks. (But then, I live in a part of the country where this REALLY needs more exposure anyway!) I can't wait until the Farmer's Markets open for the season. :-) The bags are tough, and well-constructed...I'm always amazed by how few I really need. They're also much more convenient than the reusable bags I've tried in the past; those took up a great deal of space, and you had to remember to haul them into the store with you, and of course you NEVER had them for impulse purchases. These bags simply live in my purse, and they're *always* there with me, so I never end up forgetting them. They're also easy to load, as box corners never get caught or snagged on anything! I'm still on a learning curve on opening them from their little packet forms. Invariably I have to fumble around with them to find the "top" so I can turn them right-side out again. I assume one of the days I'll get far more proficient! By Jennifer R

I was a bit worried that I'd be embarrassed bringing my bulk items to the cashier in these wierd cloth bags but it turned out that was silly. For my bananas, I just left it open a bit so the cashier could see what was in there without a problem. I even put my granola in there and attached the tag with the bin number to the string. Even if it takes the cashier a few seconds to figure out what the cloth bags are about I'm still the fastest customer because I bring my own bags so the cashier doesn't have to do any bagging.

Great idea that falls short in real-world use. They're too thick to see through, so your cashier has to open them in order to see the produce stickers and ring your order. So, you're the chick holding up the check-out line! Also, because of their thickness, they add to the weight -- and cost -- of your order.
