Have you ever bought those re-useable bags from your favorite store and then forgot to bring it with you? Yeah I have bags from Target, Menards, Jewel, and IKEA and for the life of me, I never remember to bring them. Well I have found the solution and it is a wonderful bag called “24-7” from Flip & Tumble.
This bag is so small, yet so durable and big! When open it measures 12” x 14” x 5” with a 26”strap. Roll it closed and it is now a 3” in diameter ball, about the size of a baseball. It is made of lightweight ripstop nylon, which is machine washable! I love it that I can wash it, because when I have used it for groceries, of course something has to leak.
The 24-7 bag costs only $12 plus $4 shipping (in US) and is a purchase you definitely won’t regret. Even those re-usable bags at the store cost $1-$2 and usually they get forgotten about. The 24-7 bag is meant to live in the smallest of places so it is always there when you need it. They also come in 5 colors: Black, Brown, Lime, Aqua, and Raspberry.
Now you may be skeptical at how much it can hold. This stretchy sack can hold 25 lbs. (think 1-2 bowling balls) and with a padded shoulder it keeps the bag from feeling so heavy. I took this photo off their website and believe me I have too tested its limits.
Why do I love this bag so much? Because I can flip and roll it and it is so small that it fits in my purse, diaper bag, and it takes up virtually no room in my car. After a shopping trip I just throw it in my purse and then either keep it there or leave it in my glove compartment. As a mom of 2, the more compact the better! It is also perfect for when we are going to visit someone as it holds so many toys and extras that I need. It is my 2nd diaper bag, grocery bag, and all-purpose bag. I love it!
Flip & Tumble also offers another style called “The Loopt bag.” This bag costs only $6 and is quite similar to the 24-7 bag. Measuring 18” wide by 23” tall and holding and impressive 23 lbs. makes this another great bag. Of course this bag also gets pretty compact as 1” diameter and 3” long. It comes in three colors: sky, mango, and Graphite.

Cool bags. I have some that are fifteen years old and are falling apart. Time to replace them.
