Love them!!!!!

by Stefanie W - 01/2010

I bought this type of bag back in the 80's (they were called french market bags at the time) and everyone always commented on them. I finally decided to look them up online and found them, bought several sets and gave them out at Christmas. People are thrilled. I kept one of the shoulder bags for myself and used it to do my New Year's dinner shopping - Wow! Great handsfree carrying for the heavy stuff!!!! P.S. I also use them at the beach because the sand falls right through them and you can throw them in the wash!!!!

Great Fun!

by Kris H - 01/2010

This was my second purchase of these bags, this time as a gift for my niece and her husband. They had admired mine when visiting, so I shared the fun of using them! They are bright, colorful, hold lots of weight, and many items at one time! They store very small, yet carry items many times their weight! I always get compliments from others when I use them. Enjoy!

These are the best bags!

by Audrey B - 09/2009

These are the best bags! They magically expand to fit more and more...and magically shrink to fit in your pocket or backpack when not filled. They are tough! We've packed them with what must be 30 lbs of groceries and they've held up beautifully. Narry a tear!

by Jessica H - 06/2009

Love the bags. Wasn't sure at first about the long handles, but they are great for putting on your shoulder to haul your loot around. Huge fan, keep them in my purse at all times so I can just whip them out at the store. Hold a TON of stuff.

by Dianne L - 05/2009

I purchased the net bags for myself and fell in love with the ease of keeping them with me and how much they hold without needing to run to the car before they break or fall apart(look great too)! Great construction, fun colors and easy to keep with you. I purchased a set for each of my birthday buddies, one with short handles for the petite friend and one with long handles for the very tall friend. They are thrilled-each of them called me from the store the first time they used them! Thanks

by Abigail J - 04/2009

I can get a whole cart worth of groceries into these 5 bags. With plastic grocery store bags, it usually took over 10 bags each time I went to the store! And they don't cut into my hands like the plastic bags do, so I can make fewer trips from the car to inside my house. Also great for the beach/gym, because they let the moisture out and your clothes aren't sitting damp in a bag.

I love these bags. I bought the short-handled string bags with 5 different colors that come with their own stuff bag. I use them all time for groceries and dept. store shopping. People are always asking me where I got them and I tell them where and how easy it was and how quickly they came. I also think the price was a fair one. I get my money's worth each time I use them. I was impressed with the colors and the quality. I really stuff them and with the five bags, I can pretty much get one-week's worth of groceries in them. I don't hesitate with heavy loads either...they perform so well. I'm going to get some to give as Christmas gifts this year. Thank you for such a wonderful product.

I absolutely love these bags

by Kendra G - 03/2009

I absolutely love these bags. The colors are great. I take them to the store all the time & the cashier always looks at me like I'm crazy, but I end up stuffing everything in these bags with a few left over. They stretch like you would not believe. My only complaint is they are a little shallow. Things tend to fall out on the drive home.

Love the bags, but: - storage sack is too small. only holds four bags. - would love the bags to be four or five inches deeper. things spill out too easily. have gotten tons of compliments on the bags' colors, construction, etc., and have directed a number of strangers to your site who approaced me in the grocery store and walmart.

by Barbara T - 03/2009

I love these bags! They are strong enough to carry heavy things, for example - dog food cans. They are very handy to carry around in the stuff sack. And I love the colors! They make me happy to grocery shop! I originally purchased a set to take to Mexico on vacation to carry groceries from the market since we weren't going to have a car. The 5 bags compacted nicely in the stuff sack and my husband could attach the stuff sack to his belt until we were ready to use them. They worked great, but I liked them so much I use them all the time now. I also have bought them as gifts. The concept of the string bags is not new, and it's a good one - but the colors always bring a smile to people's faces!

by Stephanie S - 02/2009

I've had these bags for close to 4 years now and I absolutely love them. The hardest part about using them is telling the bagger at the store that they can fit way more than he/she thinks. I can fit 6 roles of paper towels without a problem! I prefer to use more structured bags (e.g., boxier) with thicker, more heavy duty material for heavier boxes.

I have been looking everywhere for these

by Phaedra L - 01/2009

I have been looking everywhere for these. I recall these from when I was younger, I always marveled at how stylish these were and remember my mother carrying produce in these from the local market. :) She would keep the produce (that doesn't get refrigerated) in these. I loved the bright colors. Reminds me of the colors of the carribean. And in this frigid winter, makes me feel warm and sunny. :)
