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

    Ooh I'm on my 6th or 7th no problems yet :S (I've just packed away all my winter clothes in them! :o Hello summer!!) maybe I'm just lucky :D

    Thank you! Could you be a little more specific for me please? Poundland (my fave), Poundworld, Poundstretcher (didn't see any), 99p shop...? I am desperate to get rid of stuff, out of sight and out of mind.

    See you have some but yes poundland was where mine were from too :)
    sorry didn't think to specify we only have poundlands nearby forget that there are others lol.

    Am staying with my folks this evening and have just experimented with my Dad's king-sized duvet - shrinks down perfectly in the 100cm x 80cm sized bag.

    His comment when he eventually identified the said item: "but I only washed it yesterday!".

    :D

    Ok, perhaps a bit hasty in my recommendation. These bags are a bit hit and miss: when they work, they are great BUT around half of those I have used have faulty valves. Worth having a good listen for hissing after you have switched the vacuum cleaner off.

    Yesterday I had a DelBoy moment - I knew there was no-one else in the house yet could hear some movement. One of the bags I had compressed at the weekend had come to life and had re-inflated itself!
