Why are people buying these? They are $10 dollars cheaper as Costco....

The nearest Costco is 150 miles away. I don't like carrying a lot of stuff out of the store and into my house. I like having stuff delivered. Gas is expensive. If I do go to Sam's, I buy a lot of stuff I don't need, just because it's a good buy, sort of. Last, but not least, it's none of your business why I buy what I buy where I buy it.

I live on an island - no big box store here. I rarely go off the island but when I do the ferry fare is $17.50 + gas. Even with Amazon Prime and free shipping Delivered to my door, the cost of $25.44 for 200 bags puts that at .12 per bag. Not a bad price I think.

Don't forget that Costco also involves a member fee and certain taxes. Not to mention the gas and hassle to drive/shop there.

I'm paying the extra $ to have the item delivered to an unemployed and broke friend in another state.

A single person has to pay the same membership fee as someone with a large family, the drive is far too. I would buy from Costco if I had a friend with a membership that I could shop with and split the membership fee.

"Free shipping" is not really free... It does cost to ship and thus the extra ten bucks.Sam's has 180 count, 13 gallon, .9 mil for eleven and change... plus tax of course, :-)It probably cost me a couple bucks to drive there too... I bought a few other things as well.

Not everyone has access to a Costco. Here in New Mexico, there is only one Costco store in the entire state. Who in their right mind would drive 3-4 hours, one way, to buy garbage bags? Millions of Americans live in rural areas.

Thank you for posting your question,This item is sold by an independent seller on http://amazon.com. It is important to note that seller prices are determined by the individual seller and not by amazon.I hope this helps.

Hi! We purchased ours about a month ago and didn't pay that much for them. I'm guessing because it's getting closer to Christmas that s why they are

I think they're so cheap because the white one isn't being carried by Amazon anymore, and Amazon is the one that's charging the $40 price tag. (and these things retail for $100!)

Are you a Costco member? They refill ink cartridges for $7.99 per cartridge. That's not bad...

I was wondering why myself as well. I've seen them as low as $16. Yeah the price fluxuation is rediculous. I'm sure they have their reasons, but it is irritating.

If there is a Cost Plus World Market in your area, you can buy them for $6.99. I have no idea why the prices are so high here.

They are so expensive because the person selling these goes to costco buys them, then sells them through amazon.

yes, but FYI they are MUCH cheaper at Costco (their brand) and are at least as good (last longer)

It probably doesn't have anything to do with the product itself. I believe Amazon prices tend to fluctuate day to day, depending on inventory levels. My guess is there are just more of the 1-packs in stock right now, so the prices are set to incentivize customers to purchase that pack size instead of the 2-pack.

They were in Costco Stores this January with a $$ off sale. Stocked up on about 5 bags :)

Yeah, what's with the price hike? These were like $6 or $7 a week ago. Amazon's pricing sucks.

After seeing the comment that Costco carries this, I just checked Sams Club and see that they carry the same brand for $9.98 for a 2-lb bag (Costco is a much longer drive for me). It is in-stock at my store (Indiana), but may not be in all stores.

what ever it is..the price is too high compared to every store in us. in costco the price is just 18.99 for 4 lb bag..just stay away from this

Nancy's answer very complete and accurate - only additional comment would be to try to find them at Costco as the price is more reasonable there.

They are new, also for sale at Costco already. I have been waiting a long time and fortunately I had enough to hold me over until they new ones just came out. Barely. We had to go to an Asian grocery store and found a 16 very small bottles. Whew! Lucky break.

It's cheaper at Costco.

I thought its cheaper amazon, but found out costco is much cheaper, and newer than this one.
