anyone tried the bags that you suck out the air when you pack?

[Bobbisox]

Just tried them, hope to God the clothes don't come out looking as if they are all creased :-)))
When the air is put back in, are the clothes 'normal'?

[rsvp]

I always roll my clothes instead of folding them it works for me - hope the bags work for you Bobbisox

You could smuggle a couple of AB friends in your suitcase in those bags!

[Bobbisox]

LL, I have had a fit of the giggles at your post
bloody brilliant :-)))

[ladybirder]

I just use them for duvets and blankets and pillows, not for clothes. I suppose it would be OK if you hadn't ironed them first but I would hate to have to iron them all over again.

[LoftyLottie]

I roll clothes up instead of folding, much better and no wrinkles.

[Bobbisox]

thanks rsvp

LL, there's nowt there I am told, we would just end up sniping at one another (nothing new there then ...lololo)

[Bobbisox]

well at least I am going to a friends house so I can use an iron and washing machine lady ;-0

[LoftyLottie]

Sounds a wonderful place to go Bobbi - nothing there! What a lovely time you will have with your Brillo pads scrubbing!!

[Bobbisox]

[LoftyLottie]

[Bobbisox]

[tamborine]

[Bobbisox]

"Have a nice Time"

[netibiza]

Where is Bobbi going?

[woofgang]

"Bobbi I am a sucker for trying out new ideas but.....firstly I bought the ones that suck out air with a vacuum cleaner, yesI got more in the case and they look fine when unpacked but the weight is the same and on my return I didnt have access to a vacuum cleaner to repack. So then I tried the ones that dont need a vac u just roll them [ probably from QVC where most of my good ideas and not so good ideas come from] and as fast as I tried to roll them the air just kept coming back in again, not wanting to waste them I now use the lot as ordinary large storage bags as when you put your winter duvet up in the loft for the summer.
mine was not a sucess story so good luck with yours.
Dee"

me too, also the ones I stored in the loft actually crumbled away.

[LoftyLottie]

My loft gets rats and mice in it!! Couldn't store anything like Duvets in there!!

[Bobbisox]

it was soo comical fighting with a duvet to stuff it in the bag and then watch the life being sucked out of it :-)
