Free Bag For Life

Options
I noticed recently at the bottom of a Lakeland bag that it states "if you go instore you can ask for the bag to be replaced" - this fact makes the Lakeland bag a free bag for life! :D
My advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.

    In fairness I must add that I bought something from Lakeland when they gave me a bag, however the bag was at no cost. I'm sure you could walk in the shop and ask for a bag since the bag is only the usual plastic carrier bag. They can only say yes or no.

    Lakeland bags always used to be really strong with handles- just like the supermarket 'bags for life'. If you order from them by mailorder you obviously don't get the free bags!!
    Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!
