Do you use space bags for storage?

I have and they are brilliant.

I always buy the good brand, as with others they seem to have a flaw of some kind.

Agreed.

Doubly agreed.

No, but I think they are a good storage solution.

We have some space bags that we use to store blankets, hand knitted baby clothes, and my mother in laws hand made, award winning patch work quilts.

Phew! For a split second there I thought you had your mother in law in one!! LOL

I think we have a few, but not the really effective vacuum packs. They wouuld probably save us a lot of space if we did though.

Yes - I think the really big ones are great for storing out-of-season sheets and blankets. I even put a pillow in one once to see what would happen, and it flattened out in a way that amazed me!

LOL. I did this the other day. Couldn't believe it!

I have never used them myself but I have done the air removal on many of himself's bags of clothes. I cannot believe how thin they get!! LOL

Oh!! I am a dimwit . . . I did use one to store a doona a couple of years ago. It ended up as flat as a waffle. Hahaha.

There's something satisfying about sucking the life out of a doona like that - LOL.

Ohhhhhh yeah . . !!! Hahahahahahaha!

I've never used storage bags, but I would like to try them, to tell you the truth.

They're a good idea, Diana. The only thing I don't like about them is the smell. If things have been stored away for a while, they can come out smelling like chlorine. Well, that's been my experience anyway.

No.
It is one of the things I always think " I will get around to that one day" but never actually happens.

by BritishStorm

Yes, I have one of those lists. It is...extensive. LOL.

No I dont as I have 3 bedrooms so I have two spare so do not need these.

Being honest, I envy you on many levels, Finy! LOL. Room galore and somebody to clean it! Actually, I have lots of room (not for stuff), just to clean. >.<
