Glad Sandwich (non-zipping) Bags - I'm not glad with Glad!

Pros:
  • Container makes it easy to remove a bag.
  • Doesn't have that plasticy smell that Ziplocs have.
  • If you have a problem, Glad will send you a replacement coupon.
Cons:
  • More expensive than store brands - approximately $2.99 for 100 sandwich bags.
  • Top flap that tucks under often rips at the seams.
  • Food kept in the bag for more than a few hours gets a smell.
Bottom Line: If you have an option, go with a store brand for bags. I've found those to be much more durable than Glad bags, even though Glad is more pricey. Don't keep your food, especially wet ones such as fruit, in the bag for too long because they'll get this plasticy taste. If you do end up buying them, and the seams rip at the foldover flap, don't hesitate to contact them to receive compensation. Make sure to tell them you're not glad with Glad!
