Wilkos bags for life, are they for life?

These are great bags and loads of room for weekly shop. Just wondered if Wilkos replace these bags for life for free "bags for life" if they break etc. Picked one up the other day and the handle ripped aside from the main compartment.

  • I've only ever walked past them but I seem to remember them as 'reusuable bags' rather than 'bags for life'!
    They say you can't put a value on life... but I live it at half price!

    Thanks it does say on the bag in bold "a bag for life..." and on bar code attachment (Plastic string with a barcode and the following) "LIFETIME BAG PRICE: 50P"

    I had the same thing happen to my wilkos bag for life and when I took it back was told that they did not replace them when they were worn out unlike trhe carrier bag types from the supermarkets etc, but as the handle had ripped off, they would replace it foc. Hope that helps.

    Thanks the bags shouldn't be called bags for life if they wont replace them, surely that's misleading
