Vacuum bags

Hi guys, posting in here out of desperation as I can't locate the de-clutter thread where I know I'd get a good response - mods feel free to move this over.
After about 6 months of inertia I am finally getting rid of some of my junk, I also have a load of clothes that I'd like to store and think that the vacuum bags plus Dyson method may be the answer. The problem is, the reviews seem variable according to the brand. I've seen some on KGB deals which are certainly less expensive than others. Opinions please? I don't need anything scented, I just need something that does the job.
TIA

Can you give me an idea of what you paid for how many, so I can assess the bargain factor? Cheersnanto3girls wrote: »I bought mine from Argos, and they have been fine.

Thanks nanto3. Its worth noting that the large bags from Argos are now on offer [STRIKE]£7.99[/STRIKE] £2.99 for a 2-pack, 55cm x 85cm.
The KGB deal ones are 60cm x 80cm, £12 for 6 but no brand mentioned.
I shall take my chances and stick to Argos. 3 packs of 2 will cost £8.97 and not £12!

I once tried some from Poundland, but they were no good.0

I'll give it a go, but might have to resort to KGB deals. Am really disappointed about the Argos situation.nanto3girls wrote: »I once tried some from Poundland, but they were no good.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

Just to add that I bought 6 large bags from Poundland this afternoon. If I can't get the first to work, I'll return the rest.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
