Paper Bag Source

[Jael]

Hi...can anyone point me toward a source of 4 x 6 kraft lunch type bags? Not the flat bags, but the ones that look like a miniature lunch bag with a 2 inch bottom.

I've looked high and low online and cannot seem to find a source. I need about 200 for a reasonable price.

Thank you in advance!

If I understand what you're looking for, I've bought lunch bags like that at walmart in the paper food storage area.

They also have them at Target in packs of 50 for a reasonable price. Sometimes they have colors and white as well as the standard kraft color.

Also I've found them at the dollar stores, like Dollar General, Family Dollar, and Dollar Tree.

hmmm, I've checked all of those places in my town and no luck. Maybe I need to drive to the next town. Seems like there should be an online source somewhere?

Thanks ladies! I appreciate the info!

Papermart? but I got a shipping estimate and it was Fedex Ground shipping so about $13 Regular Grocery Bags

AND there is a $3 charge for orders under $15 in value.

Did you check Oriental Trading Company? They carry a lot of bags. Don't know if they have the exact size that you want.

I've purchased other items from this company before, and they have lots of lunch bag choices: Uline ;)

try Etsy! I've had great success there!
Here is a link to a "paper bag gusset" search

Great advice. I've also gotten some great craft supplies on Etsy that I couldn't find at a good price or in small enough quantities elsewhere.

[Jael]

Thank you ladies! I hadn't thought of Etsy as I usually think of them only for handmade stuff, not supplies. Thanks again.

Are you looking for the same bags as "lunch bags". Why over spend on a website or esty when you can pick these up at any walmart, grocery store or dollar store for a dollar and change??

Am I missing something here?? This is what you want, just regular Kraft lunch bags, am I right?

[pearlsteph]

These are a little larger than 4x6, but pretty close. Also only $5 for 50:

Couldn't find them at all the usual places. I'm thinking HallowGiveMas stock has pushed them off the shelves and into the stock room.

Might be worth looking on Walmart website and having a ship to store (I'm not a big fan of Walmart but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do).

try Hobby lobby.com right now they have their paper crafting half price...

Impress Rubber Stamps has some adorable mini kraft grocery bags, 3"x5.75", 25 for $2.95.

I saw them in walmart today near sandwich bags.
Blessings.

Hi Leslie

I've checked all of those stores in my town, they aren't there. I'm not looking for the regular size lunch bags, these are smaller than that. :-)

[Jael]

also...they have to be 4" wide, they are for paper bag albums, so they need to be able to fit a 4x6 picture inside. I've ordered what I need from Etsy and thank you all for your help!

ps. I've from a fairly small town so my Kmarts, Walmarts, Dollar Trees, etc are probably not carrying as much as maybe some of yours are.

Oh, OK. I just could not imagine mail ordering for regular lunch bags. I was almost ready to mail you some of mine, to save you money:p

[diecuts4u]

Ask a local grocery store to sell us some or order some for you. No shipping that way

[Scrapjanny]

I've never purchased from here, but I did bookmark the site earlier this year: Packaging Supplies, Gift Boxes, Cardboard Boxes | Paper Mart Maybe they will have what you're looking for.

The small ones that you're talking about, I saw them at hobby lobby. They have them in black, white or Kraft. I forget the brand (I'll look on Monday morning and update my response on Monday when they are open), name but they are acid free and high quality. If you're using them for a mini album, you'll really like the quality. I'm not talking about the party bags, they are a bit crappy. Paper studio also makes some called Sack's n Things. I hope this helps.
