ziplock bag for kindle

hotcookie101

Hi everyone,
I am about to go on holiday and I am bringing my kindle with me. Now, I'm not planning on reading it in the pool or bath, but I will be reading it when I come back from the pool so I need some sort of waterproof container for it. I don't fancy spending the £20 for a "proper" waterproof bag for it, as all I really need is splashproof, so was thinking I could just put it (in its leather cover) in a large ziplock bag :money:
First of all-will this work? or am I being a bit stupid in trying it
and secondly-can anyone recommend where to buy the bags from?
Thanks

Technically it should work.

test the brand of ziplock bag in a basin of water (with no kindle in it!) just in case it leaks. But I've never bothered with a bag with my kindle when I have a bath... ^_^

But I'm a rebel like that! ^_^ lol

I read mine in the bath with no waterproof cover

thanks, its more so can read it straight from sea/beach, or with sunscreen covered hands. my holiday books get pretty beaten up so obviously don't want to do that with my kindle
