Has anyone purchased the space bags? I try to only buy things I'll actually use....are they worth it?

I've tried them in the past and they never worked for me~~now i just buy the ziploc Big Bags and call it a day.

I got 4 at a yard sale NIB ( was too cheap to buy them at the store) and i love 'em! I did manage to tear one up by the zip lock, i think i over packed it *blushes*

They work great however! I put a drier sheet in mine when i stored them, even though they dont smell when i take the stuff out, i love the smell of my drier sheets.

I love mine!

i saw some of these the other day at dollar tree. they only had one size but they were the real thing. I was really surprised.

Yeah, the Dollar Tree has the small travel ones, you just roll the air out, no vacuum required. I've not used those. I had four in my cart but put them back.

I have a bunch of the big Space bags and love, love, love them.

I bought a ton of them when I moved and it was a really big help, spacewise. We moved over 800 miles away and only one of them popped open along the way.

Every single one I have tried has always had a tiny hole somewhere in it.... After several minutes my stuff ALWAYS started to re-inflate!! I will never waste my $$ on them again!

Out of curiosity, what brand did you buy?

I know I tried to use Ziploc bags in this manner, and they just don't hold up. But the Space Bags I got are GREAT. Even the one that my kids ripped, I just packaging taped it and it's good as new.

We just used one of the WAGS spacesaver bags on Sunday. I needed to pack away some seasonal throw pillows in a storage tote, and it worked great! They really help save a ton of space.

i saw these too, and bought four. sorry i haven't gone anywhere to try them yet

I bought one for $0.75 at a garage sale still in the box and never took it out! LOL I always wanted to know if it worked to pack away the tons of kids clothes I have.

I love mine

We have had mixed results. Some have worked and some haven't. I think I will try the Walgreens ones though and see how those do. They do save space and store old comforters, blankets, etc. very nicely!

I love them, got them from QVC. The Ziiploc work good too.

I bought the original Space Bags brand from Target.

It sounds like I'm one of the few who got the rotten apples! :-( I was really excited about them too, followed the instructions... I even tried duct tape over the hole (when I finally found it).. No such luck because then there'd be a teeny tiny hole elsewhere. It took them a little while to re-inflate, like a few hours, but every single one eventually did. I just gave up. :-( They were expensive too, wish I had my receipt and had complained to the company.
