Do you own any Thirty One bags?

[Shmily1]

I have a lot of them. I use to just buy them...now I help others buy them. They last a long time. I wash mine in the washing machine, just did one purse and wallet yesterday.

No. I go for function first. There is nothing those bags can do that a much cheaper version cannot do. I don't fall for label or name brand shopping. Especially when it's just a bag or container to store more stuff. Container store is a high priced rip off too. Some people just have OCD about everything having to be matchy matchy and will pay any price.

I have that tote! I really like it and it's very durable. I use it on vacation and it is very useful. I put stuff things like shoes, bike helmets, water bottles stuff like that. Then when I get to my destination it's for dirty clothes. Great as a laundry basket that collapses.

I got it as a special deal on GMA or the Today show. I don't think they are super overpriced. I would compare the quality as lands end or ll bean totes. http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/33381?feat=677-GN1&page=boat-and-tote-bag-open-top They are in the same price range and I would use them the same.

the difference is lands end is always, always having a sale. I got an open top tote bag from lands end for the beach. Originally 30 bucks. 30% off coupon plus free shipping dumped it down to 21.00 bucks. Had it shipped to my office in delaware, no tax.
Lands end sends out % off coupons at least 2X a month, most times more than that.

We got one as a gift. I had no idea what it was until someone said "oooh! That's a 31 bag!" OK. It's the large tote and while it holds a lot (we use it as an extra toy box) I really, really, REALLY wish it had a way to close. We'd get a lot more use out of it if it did.

I too sell 31. You can get a top a tote for $10 to put on the large utility tote so that it has a cover on it.

I believe their quality and return policy to be outstanding. Are some things on the pricey side? Sure, but I believe they are a good value and would rather spend my money on 31 then pricier clothing, it's all in what's important to you. I always buy my clothes with coupons and while on sale, but for good organization or a purse I'll spend more.

As for the flip flop pattern large utility tote, you only have until the 30th to buy it, it's only available in this bag this month. Otherwise you can get it in a lunch tote, cinch sac or keep it caddy thru the end of August.

I don't have one but have wanted the utility tote for a while now.
