I thought I had to use each store's personal name brand bags, but can I use these bags at any grocery store?

I think that you can use anything that you want at any store that you want. I can not imagine that a store would give you any grief. If they did, and answer such as "well they are more than happy for me to use these bags at ("their competitors")" will probably cause them to reconsider giving you any difficulty

in some states they are banning plastic bags in the beginning of the year. the stores that i go to you can use any bag it does not matter what bags there are i have used my bags this month for my grocery shopping and they do help you can put a little bit or a lot in each bag and if someone bags your food and misc you can tell them to load it up a lot or just a little bit of weight i hope this will help you out

You CAN use anywhere. I put my Initials where they can be seen on all bags just so others do NOT take them (They are nice to have).

I use Trader Joe bags when I go to Wegman's or Gerrity's...I have used other no name reusable bags in several stores. I see no reason why you could not use this bag anywhere...the idea is to reuse...I have never been told you have to use a certain store's bags. Hope that helps.

These bags can be used at any store - and in fact, store employees (at least the cashiers) seem to like the fact that these do not have any logos. It is definitely better than bringing a competitor-labeled bag into a store!

From my understanding, you can use the bags that are made for the unit. I agree with Clark Isaacs, contact the manufacture for they are the best person to answer this question.

Not 100% sure but I think the bags are unique to this system. We did try a bag that you can get at most stores and it didn't work.

Use a grocery size bag that is thick and durable like the bags used at Target. Avoid the thin bags.

If it is one of their baskets, it should say what size it needs. I am not sure how well these bags work with a random trash can; they seem like they are made specifically for their line of cans, and not worth getting for another brand.

They have same brand of bags, and the ones we purchased were worthless. We never understood how to use them. Other brands did not work. We returned the sealer and tossed the 6 rolls of "bags", which were basically a piece of plastic doubled over.

You certainly can. I have a Seal-a-Meal myself - no problems. I think they're just as good and durable as the brand names . . . unless you're one of those people who prefer to pay the big bucks for mfg. brands.

Yes, but I use Target brand milk bags and have had no issues. Way cheaper!!

Nope. You have to buy them separately and most likely available at your grocery store.

Dear J, I use different brands of food saver bags with my unit. As long as the bags are designed for vacuum sealing you should be fine. Enjoy!

I agree with Handy Andy, they won't fit as well. You can get "sized" generic bags at Walmart and other stores now.

I would not recommend it because they are reusable, and they are thicker than other brands. I absolutely love the product and the bags.

Yes, I have used Food saver bags, and a different brand I ordered off of Amazon from some company called Lemon Tree I think. But I know for sure I have used at least 3 different brands of bags and have not had a problem with it using any of them! Hope that helps!

Yes, it requires bags. I bought 30 for $12, thinking after I ran out of them I'd use regular grocery store bags. But so far I haven't run out of the liners that I bought. They fit so nicely. I actually think I'll buy the liners again once I run out, since we don't go through them very quickly.

We use recycled plastic bags - it doesn't matter what brand, as long as they are about 10-13 gallon sized. The inner plastic bin is separate so you pull it up a little and tuck the bags in around the outside of the inner bin and inside the outer rim of the trash can itself.

Yes, you can even use the common grocery bag. It doesn't look the prettiest, because the handles will peek out from the sides, but it's still functional. The bin itself can take a bag about twice as big as your standard grocery bag, but I didn't care to buy a whole box of bags since it takes me about a month just to fill the grocery bags.

I have used the refills from target and they fit. Have not tried any other brands. Prefer earth rated bags actually.
