    They want more than they probably paid for the item that was in it!

    I've heard of people selling designer carrier bags, but think that's stretching it!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
  • lol its hilarious!! i've seen people sell the brown paper primark carrier bags too..crazy

    They've already had nearly 700 page views for this item. What a great way to get people onto their page which features a rather large advert showing all the other items they are selling! And now, by posting this thread here, even more traffic is being driven to their listings.

    The plastic bags have been phased out for the brown paper ones now, it'll be a real collector's item in the future, worth a fortune, and we'll all wish we'd bought it! :rolleyes:
