I love this bag, but hate the idea of crunching it into the pouch!!
»
I adore this bag!I have 2 of it, ras/pink and lime/sky. They are both cute and durable, I love them much better than my reisenthel and envirosax, no matter how beautiful the others are printed, this solid color cute bags are always my favorite. One thing I don't like about it, infact I hate about it, is the idea of crunching it into the stretch pouch. Before I bought it, I thought I love the idea, how genius that they make it such easy to store it into the pouch, but once I got mine, I instantly felt that I would never crunch the bag into the bag again. TOO MUCH FOLDS!!! It look so bad with those folds, I know it's just a shopping bag but sometimes you also use it for something else. No matter what, I can't stand that idea anymore. I made my own pouch for them and the little stretch pouch is now used as a key pouch when I go shopping. If you don't mind those folds, this is really a good bag with the fastest way to store in to it's own pouch.

Amazing
»
This bag is amazing. I have a problem with remember to bring other reusable bags with me at the grocery store, but now I always have this with me because it conveniently fits in my purse. It's also quite strong, holds lots of stuff and easy to carry over your shoulder. It's great, I think I'll get another.

Additional benefits compared to other comparable bags.
»
I love this bag! The previous reviews highlight exactly why I love this bag, but I'd like to add some additional benefits:
1. The little carrying case is attached and when the bag is in use, the carrying case becomes a pocket on the inside of the bag for things like keys or cell phone
2. I can fit this bag over one shoulder, or better yet, across my body, even when it is pretty full. This makes it easier to carry and ride a bike.
Great bag.. getting another one to keep in my school bag.

Best design I have seen yet
»
I have far too many reusable bags. The problem I have, that most people can relate to, is forgetting the bags at home or in the car when you go shopping. All good intentions go awry when you've forgotten your bags. I wanted something more compact and found ones similar to the Flip & Tumble called Envirosax, but they required folding and rolling to store them. I wanted an easier method.
I recently came across the Flip & Tumble 24-7 bags and loved the scrunch and stuff method to store them. The bags are a little smaller than the Envirosax I already use, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I also like that they have a flat bottom which makes packing items more stable. This would be like comparing the packability of paper bags vs plastic bags from the grocery store. The flannel strip also works well to keep the bag from slipping off your shoulder. I now carry a Flip & Tumble bag with me in my purse, so I'm never without a reusable bag!

A great shoulder tote in a color for every occasion!
»
Even if I weren't trying to move away from using plastic supermarket bags, I would be a big fan of the Flip & Tumble 24-7 Bag. I have two and am ordering two more in other colors.
The obvious benefits are that it's reusable and rolls up into a neat flat-ish 3" ball. It's also much larger (12"x14"x5") than a standard supermarket bag.
My favorite feature -- one that sets it apart from other reusable bags I've seen -- the strap is long enough to make this a shoulder tote. And, while the bag is made of ripstop nylon, the underside of the strap is lined with a piece of fabric that keeps the bag from sliding off your shoulder -- I love that!
Additionally, the single strap of the Flip & Tumble Bag is attached from front seam to back seam. Other reusable bags I've seen have what I consider to be a design flaw -- the straps are attached so that they run from the wall closest to your body to the outside wall of the bag, making them awkward to use as shoulder totes.
As if all this functionality weren't enough, the Flip & Tumble 24-7 Bag comes in a candy store variety of colors to suit any style of dress or mood, from cool black to kooky lime green.
I highly recommend this bag. I plan to have one stowed at home, at the office, in the car, and in my purse.
