Okay someone posted awhile back about what bags to use to put in hair clips ect.
I went to the dollar store and bought baby throw away diaper bags. They are a nice color pink and smell good as well. You get 75 bags in a box. The little bags are ideal and can hold about 4 to 5 bows. People love the smell.

These are all I used for my daughter's dirty diapers, never dawned on me to use them as reg. sacks! Great idea! Do your customers know they are for diapers??

I really would have never thought of that... I use paper shopping bags and put the bows in clear boxes....but now you have me intrigued

No the customers have no idea that they are diaper bags. Will keep it that way :001_tongue:
Just always thinking of ways to save some money.

This popped back up so I thought I'd share another idea
Today I went to the dollar tree and bought 2 packs of 25 count Christmas "treat bags." They are clear cello with gingerbread cookies on them. I thought they would be handy for SMALL purchases instead of using my kind of pricey hot pink pretty ones.
Then I went to Walmart and they had 20 ct. Christmas Cello bags that were more in my colors, so I bought 2 of those too. I'll probably use the Wal-mart ones 1st (since they are cuter) and have the gingerbread ones for back up.
$4 for nearly 100 bags, that's a bargain to me! I think I pay $35ish for 250 of the hot pink bags... :-P

I use the clear cello bags in the party supplies. I stock up when HL has them on sale, but even normally it is about $2 for 50 of them. :) No so bad, but even better when they are 1/2 off. :)
