They were back by the paper goods and come in a package of 3. I mail a lot of packages to my grandkids and use them to "carry" the boxes into the post office. I just used them yesterday and a lady behind me in line said it gave her some great ideas for using her bags! I saw the bags in the Issaquah store a couple of weeks ago.

These bags rock! Anyway, I was at IKEA and they sell for $0.59 the EXACT same bag in plain, unpainted blue tarp material!!! HALLEHLUIA! For the love of God, I'm not a spammer, nor do I work at IKEA, but the fact that Costco had the gaul to discontinue this bag I was so excited to find that the bags are still made and sold elsewhere...I wanted to share with others who were also bummed about Costco's regretful decision.

They were great when I moved and even when doing laundry. I got 3 packs of them and now can't find them. I lost one of the bags already along the way. I have gotten so many compliments on them. I even use one for my crocheting projects. They are great I absolutely love the costco bags. They were great when I moved and even when doing laundry. I got 3 packs of them and now can’t find them.

I did notice that our store now sells a different cooler bag too. It's more substantial and somewhat like the ones that Sam's Club sells with the zipper and kind of puffy outside. It would be a shame if they totally stopped selling the nice reusable bags though. Of course, maybe they were just having a problem with their manufacturer. Hopefully, they'll be back soon!

I've started to sue them for all kinds of shopping in other stores to. Have you actually seen them in the stores lately though? I've been looking for more of them the past 3-4 months without success. Last time I used mine, the cashier did what most of them do: went to scan them and stopped and asked if they were mine. But this time, the sacker said, "I don't even think we sell those anymore!" When I expressed an interest in buying more, she asked someone else, who agreed they haven't sold them "for a while now." I sure hope that's temporary!

I know I've seen the Ikea bags before but I'm not sure how their dimensions compare. Either way, it's just nice that people are have started to use the reusable bags, I think.

If you have an Ikea near you, I'm a big fan of their big huge blue bags for Costco. Its hard to say from the pictures I've seen, but the Ikea bags are considerably larger which works for me, since I can handle the larger load on my shoulders without much trouble. And at 60 cents a piece, they're a good deal, if a tad unfashionable. I havent seen those Costco bags pop up in my neck of the woods, but they look fantastic.
