I purchased these bags as a give away for my staff at our retreat. I wanted to put water bottles and other items in the bag. When I took the bags out of their pouch, they were so wrinkled that I had to iron them. I hung them up for a long time but wrinkles didn't disappear. I assume the wrinkles eventually come out after you use it for awhile. I'm sure they are fine shopping bags but I like the envirosax much better - prettier too.

Just the thing
These are very handy, light, and the price is right. Small enough to keep in your purse, which is great for drug store purchases and the like.

My favorite reusable
I love the ChicoBags. I've been using them for years and always find occasions to give them as gifts: teachers, stocking stuffers, etc. This one was purchased for a basket auction donation with the theme "Shop Till You Drop"--they can at least use re-usable bags!

Makes for a great gift (teacher, hard to buy for, etc.). I often combine this reusable bag along with a gift certificate to a health food store (Whole Foods or Trader Joes). Every so often, I purchase several of them to just have them on hand and then I'm ready to give them as gifts. Also, the clip on the bag allows me to always have one clipped to my purse. No plastic or paper for me!

Convenient & fun
Just finished using the bags in the manner for which they were intended & they accomplished their mission easily. They are also good to throw around the house at folks when playing bag-tag (if you're hit w/ one, you're IT--word of caution...remove the carabiner first) & hacky-sack. Small enough to fit in one's pocket & large & strong enough to handle a fair amount of heavy groceries & colorful enough to be somewhat cool.

Terrific
So compact, I can have one even in a small purse. Now I always have a bag with me! Folds up easily. I also use it as a lunch bag. I'm ordering more! The only caveat - the shoulder straps aren't that long so if you want one to comfortably go over your shoulder, I'd check out the Chicco one designed for that.

Love them
Ordered five of the colorful chico bags to encourage my family to stop using plastic bags. What I really like are the bright colors and the stowage bag is sewn to the inside of the shopping bag, so you don't worry about losing it and also provides a purchase for restuffing it which is very easy to do. I also love the wide straps in the shoulders so they don't cut into your shoulders when heavy and the carabiner so it can attach to a purse, backpack, etc. This is a great product at a reasonable price.

Cute, but not the workhorse.

I bought my boyfriend a ChicoBag last Christmas. It's had some heavy use - transporting shoes, groceries, books, lunches, etc. - and the stitching at the bottom is starting to pull out. I wouldn't expect to carry more than 25#, but I was hoping for a more durable product. This time I'm going with ACME bags.

Great little bag!
I bought my first Chicobag in the grocery store in Mendocino, CA, but I loved it so much that I ordered 5 more from this site when I got back home. Great gifts, amazingly roomy, beautiful colors, and small enough to carry anywhere. Plus, I love the fact that the small bag to stuff it in is actually part of the construction. That way, I don't lose it...

I confess, I used the low price on this little bag to "round out" my order so I could use a free shipping code--but it turned out to be a really great bag! Love the mini carabiner on the side and how easily you can shove the bag back into its attached pouch. Sometimes little bags are hard to fold up as small as they were when you first got them, but this one is easy to keep small. Thinking about buying more as stocking stuffers!

I bought these and had many comments on them in the grocery store. I love them!

Bought the bags to give as holiday gifts for the people in my office. I found the quality to be good and the size to be perfect for carrying a few things from the grocery store. The compacted size is also perfect for keeping in a purse. They were worth the price.

I purchased over a dozen of these as stocking stuf

I purchased over a dozen of these as stocking stuffers for Christmas. The color selection is great. All the colors are rich and uniform. There is a color for everyone. The men will get the darker, more masculine colors and the girls will get the brighter colors. The pink is really cute! These unfold and restuff easily into their own attached pouch (no special folding needed). I think they will come in handy not just for shopping. They can be used as a tote, extra luggage in travel or camping. They are small enough to fit in a small purse. They can be left in a car; attatched to camping gear; clipped to a jacket or belt loop. They are as nice as I expected. Even purchased one for my stocking. Thanks.
