I keep seeing commercials for "Green Bags"...apparently they're supposed to keep produce fresh up to 21 days. I'm thinking of trying them...has anyone else?

Thanks for the link Flap. Based on most of those reviews I wouldn't touch those things with a 10 ft pole. They sound horrible!

Well, most of those dadgum tv infomercials don't inform you of the ridiculous cost of S&H. And oh, yeah....another thing they do is this: "Order NOW and receive not two, but FOUR blah-blah-blahs and as an added free bonus gift, you can also have this blah---just pay S&H (for the "free" bonus gift).
When they're done adding the S&H on top of the low, low price, it ends up being not such a great deal.
Reminds me of the crap sellers pull on eBay, which is why I don't bother with that site anymore.Just more proof that if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

Ok, I picked mine up in Walgreens today!
I am going to give them a whirl. They were $9.99 at Walgreens and I didn't have to pay for shipping and handling. There's 20 bags in the package. I think that's what they were offering on the infomercial. I'll let you know what I think of them...LOL

Oh, I think that is a good deal! From what I was reading on those reviews, some of those people sounded like they got royally screwed from the infomercial.

They also sell them at Bed Bath and Beyond and you can use a 20% off coupon and not have to pay shipping. I totally want to try them too.
