    I saw some on QVC (sachi) that I was thinking of getting. Does anyone have these? Are they worth the $?

    Thanks :D

    I just bought 2 recently. One of me and one for DD to use with the grandkids. I got green with dots. They are really cute. We are going to use them on day trips.

    Do you have any experience making bags? While the QVC bags are not a bad price, you can make quite a few for the same price. I buy Insul-brite w/ a coupon at Joann's and use fabric from my stash. I have made smaller bags for lunch and larger bags for shopping. All who have received use them regularly (and they are machine washable). Another option --- if you are just looking to get your icecream home from the store in the summer before it melts, a couple of small blocks of ice (like water put into ziploc bags and frozen) inside a cheapie styrofoam cooler will do the trick. Not as pretty, but just as effective.
