What is the point of these bags anyway? It seems that you pay for the bag holder, and then you also pay more for the bags. If this is actually saving packaging material, I think Sainsbury's should pass on some of those savings...Sainsbury's have today launched their Whole Milk bags in 100 stores!0 -
I think originally the bags were more expensive but the last time I looked they were cheaper. However I only drink whole milk so I've avoided them until now. They were giving the jug's away free last year (or earlier this year).
I've just checked mysupermarket, they have the bags down as 6p cheaper than the bottles and also in a 2 for £1.50 deal which makes them 11p cheaper per bag. That makes it the same price per litre as the 6 pint bottle!0 -
Thanks thatguy1 for the information. I have been waiting for this for a long time as I always use the bags but much prefer whole milk. Off to Sainsburys I go :beer:0

We haven't got a Sainsbury near us but when i read about the bags of milk i thought they may be easier to store in the freezer than bottles, But as i say i've not seen them.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

I first purchased these a couple of years ago when they were trialled in our area. Although it said the bags were freezable, they split in my freezer and when I next opened it up there was frozen milk over everything where the bags had split, dripped out and hence frozen. So I'd be interested to hear if they have improved the freezability of the bags!!!We’ve had to remove your signature.

we buy the countrylife bagged milk from tescos (when they actually have any on the shelf) as the 2 for £1.50 and freeze 1 every week. Had no issues with it yet and they defrost a lot faster than a carton does. If you get the jug it jug they have for them it pierces the bag in the jug and avoids any mess or hassle, all that needs cleaning regularly is the spout0
