I have always loved glad's gallon sized wide mouth bags. They have progressively gotten harder and harder to find in the stores since they all go store brand now and try to pass theirs off for the same as these but they aren't the same. no other bag around can hold a 2 pound home made loaf of bread or fit around a dinner plate to be put in the fridge.. Love these. Nothing works like a glad bag. now if I could only find the flip open sandwich bags... i'd be doing great.. everything is zipper close these day.. don't like them, never did.

I like the original Twist Tie Storage Bags because they are easier to use when cleaning the cat litter box waste.

I have searched for these for years to no avail. It is a geat product which should never have been nade unavailable in the grocery stores and other sources!!Shame on Glad!!
The on-line price was very reasonable in a purchase size of 12 and there was no shipping so this product is a great purchase on line and I am happy!!!

These crystal clear roomy one gallon food-safe bags are great to store everything from food items to anything that doesn't require a zip type closure. This well known brand of 100 comes with an equal number of twist ties. They are fabulous to place homemade quickbreads and cookies inside and tie closed with a ribbon for gift giving. Their size permits placement of a sandwich on a plate inside to store in the fridge til later. Doggie treats, hard candies, even loose change, the uses are endless. These are sooo much more economical so why use a zip type bag if these do the job, sometimes even better? I use them so frequently I purchased a dozen boxes of them at one time on Amazon.

I use these bags to clean out my cat's litter box. For that purpose, they are fine. These bags are hard to find in stores, the only store I could find in my area that carried them was Walmart. The Walmart bags are Great Value brand which I believe is a Walmart brand. They cost $2.97 (not counting sales tax) per box of 100. So for the price I paid for this case of Glad bags with free shipping, I would have saved .17 cents per box (again, not counting sales tax savings). BUT, I used the monthly delivery feature which gave me a .59 cents per box savings. And the $2.97 price per box didn't include tax so buying them on here if you use them alot, is a savings, that is if quality, size and thickness of the bag isn't a concern. If quality and size were my concern, I'd have given them 2 stars for the savings.(read next paragraph for explanation)

All that said, you'd expect the bags being from Glad to be of top quality. Just the opposite. They are thinner than the generic Walmart brand and not NEARLY as big. For quality, I'd take the Walmart brand HANDS DOWN. But for my use of cleaning the cat box, they work fine and they save me money. Plus adding in no sales tax, free shipping and the monthly delivery option, which by the way you can skip months if you don't need them the next month AND you can cancel it so even if you only want 1 case of 12 boxes and it will last you a while, go with the monthly delivery and then just cancel it or skip it each month until you need them again. Hope this helps.

These are the only bags that work for the product I sell. I need bags that go over a 9-10 inch paper plate and I need the twist tie not the zipper bag. I have looked for something similar at the local stores and they don't carry twist tie or they are narrower. They are more economical. They are also great if you need to have a shaker bag for meat or anything else. Zipper bags are too expensive for just a small job. Glad twist tie bags used to be a little thicker and that was much better.

One gallon storage bags with twist ties are hard to find at any retail store as they are stocking primairly zipper lock or press to lock bags which I find clumsy and inconvenient.

These bags are of a thinner guage than the competitor's brand which I cannot find anymore. They are difficult to open as the sides of the bag cling together. Other wise they fill the function they are intended for and I recommend them.

Delivery was prompt.

I was very happy with the service i recieved on this purchase. I would definitely recommend the baggies to anyone. I was so happy to find them as they are impossible to find in local markets.Hopefully they will last me many years.

These remind me of Dixie 5oz Kitchen Cups, also discontinued. btw I found them her in amazon. although having to buy a case of 1200 of them, who cares for $30.00. I was just into Stater Bros. yesterday looking for these now, and there general floor manager called Glad and the Generic company, they are officially discontinued by the Mfg, what ever is left is sitting in warehouses. That is where they are finding these supplies at, squirreled away. so buy them while you can even though you may not need them now DO IT!! Jesus its only $30.00

By the way here is the link to the standard 5 oz Standard Kitchen Dixie Cups: they do fit the dispenser.

Enjoy, as I know I willl!

I cannot find the gallon Glad twist tie bags in the stores, so I was thrilled when I found I could order them on-line. I am very disappointed in the bags as they are not the same style I used to purchase. They are not as wide, nor are they as long as they used to be, in other words, they look stunted. Why did they change the style?
