Yes at their sale price it is down to about $.07 per bag against Wal-Mart Baggies at  3/4 of a cent a bag.  Still for a proper apple bag not a bad price.  I am disturbed by the instruction to remove the bag 2 weeks before ripening.  Around here that gives plenty of time for the coddling moths to get busy. 

 

I guess it did not sell very well when it was the right time to put on bags.  Then it would have been $25 a bag.

I just received an email sale add from Gardens Alive which included a product they call "Perfect Fruit Bags".  Even on sale it is lot more expensive than baggies and it is probably to late for most folks  to order and use this year.  Here is the link.  http://www.gardensalive.com/item_display.asp?PN=6915&sid=140682&prd=y&eid=060204ga&eicioi=225359
