Bed, Bath & Beyond has them on sale and I was wondering if anyone knew if they worked or not. I have been considering buying them for a while, and they have them for half what you order them off TV for.

I normally do not buy "as seen on TV" but this would be nice if they worked!

I have TW Fridgesmart for some stuff, but they are not big enough for everything.

I may get them next week when I go to the doctor. I have a 20% off coupon, so, for $8.00 plus tax I can get 20 bags.

Did you get the sales magazine? They are in it. AND it has a $5.00 off coupon if you spend $15 or more (well, that's not hard to do, ha!):D

Watched it. Thanks! I guess they did work on some things but not all things.

I keep lettuce and gapes in my Fridgesmart, so, I would use them for other things. Strawberries never last long with me around anyway, ha!

Thanks very much for posting that great link!

i bought some and am not impressed. they ones i bought are long and narrow, so they don't fit things like a big head of romaine. the first time i tried to open one, the "ziplock" thing broke. as for keeping foods fresh longer, i think they do, but i have not really experimented.
 
Hmmm...they don't look like they are worth the $$ and effort, though.
 
I was totally wondering about these. We live in an area where the produce STINKS! They sell strawberries half rotten! DH and I are about fed up with the quality of the produce here in the Twin Cities, and he told me I should buy some of these! I will tell him about that link!

Thanks!

What is Fridgesmart?
 
I have the greenbags, they do work but she also has bags that are gold for things like bread, muffins, etc..those do not work, they give the bread a funky smell.
But yes, the green bags DO work, they extend the life by about a week and I use them ALOT during the summer when I am getting more produce. The only thing I have found they don't do well on is mushrooms...they get too soggy.
I use them every week!
 
Fridgesmart is tupperware. I have a consultant if you need any TW!
 
I happened to be home one Friday morning and after Regis & Kelly, a show called "Mike & Juliet" or something like that, came on and in the promo they mentioned they tried out several infomercial products. They did Airborne, the green bags and they mentioned the detox patches you wear on your feet (which is something I've been interested in), so I left it on and watched it. Airborne was totally panned. As for the green bags, if you use them correctly, they work. The gal who tried them didn't store some things properly so the food went bad. So, she contacted the company and they told her what she did wrong. She redid her experiment, and they worked well. The bags were given a thumbs up :thumbup: in the end.

And, wouldn't you know it, the detox patches were held over for the next Friday's show, which, of course, I missed because I was at work! I checked their website, but couldn't find the video on them. Sorry to hijack, but does anyone know if these work, or are they just a hoax?

Thanks!

My mom bought the green bags off QVC and she gave me a few.

I love them. Especially for red/green peppers - they stay good for weeks in the fridge! I put all my vegi's in them... and then wash and re-use!

I'd buy more :D
 
I got them from QVC and I sent them back. They did not work fot me.
