karma: 1 | $5 OOT Bags bought....
Not sure what a good price is? I found these today on clearance at Walmart for $5. They are 12.5in.X14.5in.x4in. My wedding colors are blue, lime, acqua....so they were a perfect fit. I bought them as they seemed cheap and the perfect color. I am going to do beach towels so they are the right size. What do you think, do they look cheap? Should I return them? i was initially going to do something that I could monogram, but with these I can use the monogram as a name tag on each and then guests can resuse without our name on their bag. Is $5 too much or is that a normal price for OOT bags? Thanks all, I appreciate your help in this decision!
The Bag
Bag Colors (it is covered in a plastic material for water resistance, which I thought would be perfect for the beach).
HEre is the bag with 2 large beach towels in it (not the ones I will buy)

I think the bag is adorable and perfect for the beach! It may be a little more than what a lot of people pay since they buy them off of a website for 99 cents a piece, but I have to think that by the time you buy them, haved them shipped and monogram them...it can't be that much more! Either way, I think they are a great find and would love to get one as an OOT gift if I went to your wedding!

Those are great, and I love the colors. I haven't even found mine yet. I'm a little behind.

I think they're cute! $5.00 sounds like a great deal for those bags & would only be too much if you had a bunch to buy. They don't look cheap. Hang on to them, girl!

I think they are great bags.....probably a little expensive though (depending on how many you need) - I was trying to stay under $2.00 for the bag and $10.00 total per bag (as I need 25 of them) - if you only need a few, then $5.00 is probably ok! Definintely nice bags though, and great colors - i'm sure people will keep them and use them again at home.

I think they are perfect, and $5 isn't too much as long as you don't have too many guests.
