I remember these being on sale last Christmas but I don't see the sale yet this time around. Any idea when those went on sale last year? I'd like to get one but don't want to spend full price.

Thanks!

I got mine last year on Oct 19. I don't think they've been on sale yet this year.

Just found it on sale using the 68 trick...its down to $22.99 from $29.99. And it has free shipping. Do you all think this will be the best price? I'm anxious becasue I see that the small bag is no longer available and I've been watching this all season!

With the free shipping today, I don't think you'll get a better deal. I just bought it, and they didn't charge extra for the personalization.

Do you think there's any chance that it will get here by Christmas if ordered tonight?

Thanks OP, with the free personalization, free shipping, and 68 trick, I didn't think it would go any lower. I'm looking forward to getting it!

For those that got it personalized...did you put an "s" at the end of your last name? thanks!

I did, with no apostrophe.

I was considering putting an apostrophe at the end but my English teacher DH vetoed it.

Thanks! I thought that's how it should be, it just kinda looks funny w/o "the" in front.

I just placed my order...I don't remember what the best price as last year, but I am happy with $24.xx (after tax) with free shipping and free personalization. Ahisma, if you got your personalized I'm sure it won't be here before Christmas. When I ordered the beach towels a few weeks back it took a little bit for them to be personalized and shipped. But, we're now ready at my house for Santa's big delivery next year! YAY! :yay:

Last year (October) I got them for $19.99 each plus tax. Personalized and f/s. This is still good. I got one for each child with their name on it and last year Santa left them with his toys in them and this year we are to leave them out for Santa to fill (thus not having to wrap those gifts, but still can't see what they are when DC come downstairs) Also got photos of them in their bags this year. Cute. Worth the $ as I think we'll use them for a long time.

SO CUTE!! I wish the small ones were still available! PBK just sent me a 10% off my order email so I was wondering what to use it on! :) So I ordered a large one with our family name on it.

THANKS OP, just got it for $22.19 with tax! :)

Yes, the Santa Bags still had free shipping today! And still free personalization (although that isn't "advertised" on the item, it just "rings up" that way when you check out)!

I think there's a chance. If I'm reading their website right, it says Dec 20 at 5 PST is the deadline to recieve personalized items by Christmas. Seems too close to me, but maybe it's right!

These bags are awesome! We have one for each of our daughters with their first names on them that we set out for santa to leave presents in. I think they were a little cheaper last year, but not much.

Whenever I have ordered personalized things in the past from Pottery Barn, they always ship really quickly, sometimes same day or next day.

I agree, I wanted the "the", but it put us one letter over.

I did order it personalized and am crossing my fingers that it gets here in time. It's not the end of the world if it doesn't, but it would be great to have it! I called last night and they said that we'd have it, but I'm not holding my breath...

What is the 68 trick?

yes it was. it shows up as $22.99 for the large, the small is sold out.

Thanks for posting, just ordered one. :) Never thought I needed one, but with the 68 deal, free shipping, and free monogramming, how could I pass it up? ;)

So, I'm justifying it that it would be a great place to put "family presents" as sometimes it's hard to decide which child to designate a present for when it's really going to be used by everyone, ie a board game. :)

Put the item you want in your shopping cart. When you add it to your cart it, the item number will be displayed. Copy the item number to the search bar but change the first two numbers to 68. 68-7032519 should bring up the Santa bags.

are these really worth $24? hearing mixed things out there. Are they paper thin? Uggh what other places carry bags like these? tried etsy but not much luck, even if I save them for next year

Well, I just got a shipping comfirmation email for mine and it included my UPS tracking number. When I track it, the UPS website shows the package is coming 2nd day air so we should have it for Christmas! :bighand: I was skeptical, but it looks like its going to be here!

I received my bag today and wanted to give a little review on the quality since someone asked. The bag is made of a typical weight fleece. It isn't fancy velvet or something high end, but you wouldn't expect that for this price. It isn't super thin or anything, and I plan on just putting toys from Santa in it. I only have one child though so the large is really a little too big. Given that it will just be used once a year to hold gifts, I'm happy with the purchase. The personalization is really nice, and I was super happy with how fast it shipped.

I can't find them at Frontgate either. I see a pic in the category buttons but I can't find the item.

I just got my PBK bag today. For it's use, it will be great! It will blow my 3 year old's mind, which is it's main purpose, afterall:)

Super bummed! Just got my order today and the monogram is upside down! I called CS and they don't have any more bags so I cannot get a replacement. They are going to credit me back the full price and I can keep it or discard of it, but man am I bummed! Thankfully my daughter is quite little, but I have been watching this for 2 Christmas seasons now and was so excited to finally get it!

Hate that happened! FWIW, you could possibly take it to a professional monogrammimg store in your area and they *may* be able to remove the old monogram and replace it.

Or, maybe they could embroider some fabric and applique it nicely over it? You'd have to pay, but perhaps it would be less than the cost of the bag, so it would at least be a wash.

What a bummer, I'm sorry.

I have an embroidery machine- if you're interested PM me after Christmas and I can see what I can do. What a bummer!!
