Another Saltwater Canvas question...

[c2lane]

I'm getting in on this totally late but would like to order a couple bags.

For those of you have them, how well do they fold up? We go to Maui a couple times a year and these would be great for over there, as well as for home. Would I be able to pack these bags in my suitcase without taking up much room or is the mesh too hard to fold?

Also, when exactly does the coop end? Also what is the Yard sale, I don't see this on the site?

I think you could put them on your suitcase easily. They actually come to you "rolled up". Wow, be happy to accompany you to Maui!

Here's how to get to the "yard sale". Mine is from there and it looks perfect, not sure what the problem is!!! Great deal! I was leary of ordering from the yard sale page not knowing how it'd look. Glad now that I saved a few dollars.

If I get a chance I'll take a picture for you. Not sure if I will get to it tonight.

I just thought that I would share that I used mine for the first time today and I absolutely love it. I got a whale bag and I was able to put everything I needed for the pool for my dd and myself. Two towels and some toys and on top of all that I put my Chester Tote in the bag as well. It worked great since I already have that packed as my diaper bag. All the pockets on the outside were great for putting the sunscreen and her hat and things like that. I even put her wet bathing suit in one of the pockets when we were done swimming. I would highly reccommend this bag. And it does come folded really pretty small for the size so you could easily fit it into a suitcase.

Okay, you've both totally sold me - I looked at the Yard sale page and looks like they only have the special whale - it wasn't my favorite but for the price it would work.

I also really like the beachy bag which would be perfect for our trips to the pool for DDs swim lessons!

Anyone order the mini mesh bags? Think I'll get a couple of those too!

Thanks again!

I hope you're not disappointed. I bought one for my SIL too and she LOVED it. She said she'd looked everywhere for one that had that many pockets on the outside.

I got a mini mesh bag with my order (well, it was $1). Haven't used it yet, but think I'll like it too.

Sorry, haven't had time to take pics but it has ALOT of stuff in it!

If I understand correctly, if you purchase from the Yard Sale page, the cost for shipping is only $1? That seems worth it in itself.

No problem about the photos, although I'm dying to see one packed!

Thanks Priscilla. I plan on ordering my bags this Thursday, which I understand will be the last day of the special, correct?

OK,

Hope this will allow me to add pictures. I haven't had good luck recently. I'll try to attach one with the bag packed and another with the bag and the contents laid out in front of it. Here's what I had in the bag.
- 3 beach towels
- my bathingsuit and cover up
- DS bathingsuit
- hats galore
- suntan lotion galore (not sure why so many were in there)
- insect repellant (took it to camp with me)
- baby's bathingsuit and swim diapers
- thin baby blanket
- asst. things...toys, goggles, wipes

If I can't attach the pics, I'd be happy to email them to you!

It won't let me attach the pictures for some reason. Emai me and I'll send them to you!
