These are great bags, so small you can always have 1 or 2 in the glove box.

Great little bags!
I carry one of these bags in my purse incase I make an unplanned trip to the store or if I need a bag for some other reason. They are light and compact.

Great bags
I ordered a lot of these bags for work. I am glad they came in a variety of colors which I needed. My biggest complaint is I wish the clips on the side were on stronger. Also some of my bags are already showing wear and tear after few uses but overall great bags.

Disappointed
0 out of 2 customers found this review helpful
I was disappointed with the bags. I initially bought them as gift bags, but when I opened it out of
the little pouch it came in, it was extremely wrinkled. I couldn't use it and I ordered other hemp
bags. If the bag was neatly folded in the little carrier I think it would be better, but I received them just stuffed in and very very wrinkled.

Love the Chico bags. I have about 10 of them. Very convenient, easy to use and take up very little space. Purchased them for presents.

Fits pocket or purse, never lost in car!
Chico Bags are a great solution for people who routinely forget their green grocery bags miles away in the parking lot of the store. Just stuff one in a pocket or purse and never have to make that mad dash out of the checkout line to fetch your bags again. I love these things!

Cute and convenient!
I bought these as a Christmas present for a friend who wanted to make a statement at the grocery store. She loved this compact and adorable little bags and especially liked the clip. They were a perfect complement to the other bags that made up her gift. Also, I saw them at a store I was in recently and they were priced higher than I got them for on the reuseit site. All around a great purchase and experience. Keep up the good work!

I have owned a number of Chico bags and often give them as gifts. Recently, I was on an extended family vacation and gave one to each of my family members. A few of them were used the first day for purchases on our trip. I carry two of them with me all the time. They take up very little space, are easy to open, come in a lovely variety of colors and are inexpensive. Please continue to have Chico bags available for purchase on your webasite. This is a great product!

Love, Love, love Chico Bags!
I love the Chico bags. They are reasonably priced. I have bought quite a few over the years. I keep one in my purse at all times, and store one or two in the car as well in the glove box. They are washable, non toxic and colorful. They are a convenient size for carrying with a full load and very sturdy. I bought one for all my friends for a stocking stuffer. No more plastic bags!!!!!

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
0 out of 1 customers found this review helpful
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.
