Since our USA-made custom tote bags are cut and sewn to order, we can often make modifications to the size, shape, or features of the bag.
La Boîte took full advantage of this. The company created a custom bag unlike any we’ve ever done before (which is how it should be!), and Christian Leue, Office Manager at La Boîte, took a moment out of his busy holiday season to talk to us about the company’s project! Continue reading
In September, Promotional Products Association International completed a study of more than 1,000 consumers to provide insight into the behaviors of the recipients of the custom reusable bags, custom water bottles, and other promotional items that you buy from a company like us. Well, we hope it’s us. But we digress…
The study found a year-over-year increase of the overall advertising reach of promotional products (hint: It’s higher than any other form of advertising that provides daily exposure!). Five in 10 consumers polled stated they encounter promotional products “most of the time or at all times per day”. Need more insight into turning your custom reusable bags project into money well spent? Consider the top 8 reasons why the people surveyed hang onto promotional products: Continue reading
As we’ve mentioned before, we have lots of clients that work at our nation’s colleges and universities. In looking at product sales over the last week, not only did we discover some pretty cool trends with water bottles (read more here), but we also noticed that there is a similar gravitation in this industry towards certain bags—and they weren’t the ones we would have guessed!
Here are Bulletin Bag’s top six best-selling custom bags for college students! Continue reading
“You know those laminated Whole Foods bags? Do you make those?” We have a lot of conversations that start out this way. (Psst…the answer is yes!). Bulletin Bag currently offers custom laminated bags in 13 stock sizes, and with several material options (some are even insulated). Additionally, we can make any of our custom bags in ANY shape, size, or material!
Remember that the lead-time is much longer for these bags than for our stock bags. What’s the difference? Stock bags have an imprint area that your art needs to print within, while custom laminated bags print from seam to seam on all surfaces of the bag. The minimum order quantity is 3000 bags for custom laminated bags, but the end result is worth it for a lot of clients. After all, it’s your messaging in full color, on all surfaces of the bag!

Many of our nonprofit clients hold reusable bag fundraisers and most think they want cheap reusable bags to resell. After all, buying the most bags you can get for your money makes sense, right? At first glance, it might seem that way. However, this is not usually the way to maximize a return on your investment.
We understand that money is tighter than ever before. There is a lot of competition between equally worthy organizations for that money. While not all nonprofit demographics will support a $10 or $20 per-bag fundraiser, finding a “sweet spot” between initial cost and return will yield a much more successful fundraiser than you think.
Don’t believe us? Consider these three examples: Continue reading
Custom tote bags—USA made or otherwise—are an excellent way to take your organization’s branding or messaging to the next level. Some of our tote bags are USA made, but many are not. Whether your project dictates locally sourced bags, if you’re looking into reducing your carbon footprint, or if you just want to support American workers, USA made bags are a viable option for quality tote bags.
As you start the planning process for your custom tote bags, USA made bags can have some quirks that make them unlike our others. Here are five things to keep in mind as your project unfolds: Continue reading
More and more municipalities across the country are enacting plastic bag bans or fees, and shoppers are finding ways to adapt. As a result, folding bags, in large part due to their incredible convenience, are more popular than ever. However, there’s more to buying wholesale folding bags than you’d think. Here are some things to consider when deciding on those ultra-portable reusable bags that collapse, fold, or stuff into smaller footprints. Continue reading
Bags made from recycled materials have always been an important mainstay in our reusable bag lineup. It feels good to know you’re using a product that was created from the waste from another. As such, we offer more than a dozen bags made from recycled materials at Bulletin Bag [.com]!
We’ve all seen a laminated bag that proudly proclaims how it was a plastic bottle in a past life. Did you know, however, that there are other options for bags made from recycled materials besides that stuff from recycled drink bottles? We offer reusable bags made from recycled cotton, recycled polyester, and recycled PET! Continue reading
Bulletin Bag has been selling custom drawstring backpacks for a long time. The problem is, unless a client asked, they had no idea we offered them! We’re excited to announce that has changed. We now have a category on our website just for drawstring backpacks!
There are so many options out there for drawstring backpacks—and it can be daunting to find the right one for your needs. That’s why we have hand-chosen a selection of our most popular ones. Even though we offer them in price points for every budget, we didn’t skimp on quality. Continue reading
We at Bulletin Bag [.com] have a good number of clients who are shopping for custom wedding totes, either for themselves or for a loved one who’s getting married. Wedding favors have become an integral part of a couple’s celebration. Many are forgoing small, somewhat disposable tokens for larger gifts that can be kept—and used—by wedding guests long after the special day has passed.
Custom wedding totes are a thoughtful choice for a couple looking for a lasting keepsake for their guests. Any of our reusable bags can be printed with special artwork, lettering, or even a photograph in many cases, resulting in a treasured personal memento. Continue reading
