Plastic Bag Storage Tip

Plastic Bag Storage TipEver open the plastic bag cabinet or drawer and have them all "spring" out at you? I was condensing some today when I thought "I wonder how small they can get?" So, I rolled one from the bottom up so the air would leave, and when it was done, it was the shape of a long cigar. I then folded it in 1/2 and 1/2 again, and stuffed it in a spice jar. I actually got 3 in there! Now, I am not saying you have to put them in spice or medicine bottles, but you can fit a lot in ziplock snack bags, old coffee cans, pringles tubes, or just about any container that keeps them "corralled"! I hope this helps.

Excellent way to store in the car glove box for extra litter bags, too :-)

I use an empty paper towel tube to store plastic bags. Roll up each bag and insert in tube. The tube fits neatly in any drawer or cabinet.
