Cheap and durable beach bags for welcome bags?

[jt20]

Anyone know a link to cheap DURABLE beach bags? I"m not sure whether I should use a mesh bag or a tote bag to give out to the guests AND whether I should use the bag as the actual welcome bag, or buy a separate paper shopping bag and put the goodies and beach bag in there? Any suggestions?

I was researching this too and came up with a site called namifiers. Do a search for beach totes, once it pops up on the left hand column click on the budget tote it is only 1.98 and you can also customize it for a bit more. They also have one for 11.98.

i was thinking about doing bags the guests can use again as the welcome bags (to put everything in) but we have to do 35 and it was gonna be too expensive; so we are putting everything in colorful paper gift bags. I think if you do beach bags it'll be nice to just put all the goodies inside instead of putting everything in a seperate bag.

It depends on how much you want to spend on your bags. I found some great decent sized bags. I haven't put them to the test at the beach yet, but they are thick cotton canvas... $4 per bag. here's the link:

The only downside, they only come in yellow. I didn't mind too much, not my wedding color, but I decided that not everything had to match. They're really nice bags.

 

Good luck!

I bought some great beach bags from WalMart on clearance. The bags were only $3 each and they came in various colors with hawaiian flowers on them and stripes. They are awesome for the OOT bags and I could not be happier with them. I will most likely have extras that I will be selling soon. You can check walmart to see what they have on clearance, they always have some really cheap bags.

I got mine on Ebay from Kirmansurplus. They cost me $1 and are the quality of the bags you get from Victoria secret. Also very roomyWHOLESALE LOT OF 25 EXPANDABLE JELLY TOTE BAGS - eBay (item 350306792550 end time Jan-23-10 11:57:57 PST)
