Cool!

Love these bags! Sturdy, great colors, and make shopping a bit easier..no need to transfer items to a different container at home - I just hang the bags on hooks in my pantry.

Handy Bags

 

by Kathie A - 04/2011

These bags are really great to have tucked in each car and my desk at work. They are able to hold a lot of things and the handles are really comfotable to hold on to. I gave one of the bags in my set to my parents and they are just as happy with their bag as I am with mine.

I've been using my earth tone cotton string bags for over a year now. I've been so happy with them I recently placed another order for them to make sure I have enough bags on hand when I go to the grocery store. It's amazing how much these bags hold. I never have to worry about the bags breaking on my way from the car to the house the way I did with the plastic bags. I would absolutely recommend these bags.

Very happy with this order. I used them myself and as gifts at Christmas. I thought they might be to small but was happy surprised on how much they held.

Awesome bags!

 

by Kara E - 10/2010

These mesh sacks hold a ton of weight and expand to contain all sorts of odd shapes. I find them useful for trips to the farmers market, but also to the beach (as you don't have to carry sand home in your beach bag). They fit into the stuff sack pretty well, but you have to really cram them in.

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!

Love the bags

 

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.
