It all depends on what type of bag your after what type of material they are how many colours you want ect. They start from 2 a penny up to £ 3-4 per bag and are a brilliant and cost effective way of advertising. last year uk retailers spent £64-80 million pounds on carrier bags alone. even if i got a quater of a percent of that id be happy.

Craig,

I might need a small number (e.g. 100), just for a promotional idea ... PM me, and we'll discuss.

I was just wondering if you have an "environmental" approach. The past few months, all the major supermarkets have been targeting environmental issues relating to their carrier bags. Tesco is now offering points if you reuse bags, others are offering reusable bags that aren't made out of plastic.

I was wondering that it is quite possible that since we are going through somewhat of a 'green' patch politically with all this carbon footprints and so forth that it is possible that the carrier bag industry might see a downturn in productivity. Have you taken that into consideration?
