We are getting 200 of bags like this made
They are sturdy and fold up really small.
Pricing has yet to be decided, and we would be interested in feedback. The bags should be available very soon, certainly well in time for christmas orders  |

Don't know if this helps, but the bags look very similar to a couple of bags I made from cotton calico that I got from the market.
I got two bags out of a £2 piece of material, so they were a quid each to make, not including labour (about 2 hours).
If you add logo printing costs for your bags onto that, and perhaps a bit of profit, maybe you could sell them for £2.50/£2.99 each? |

Aha! I think you have solved my Christmas-present-quandry situation.
Those are SMART. Thanks for doing that! When will they go on sale? |
