Custom Bags for Deliveries & Curbside Pickup
In our last blog post, we discussed how important it is for grocers to have their own branded, reusable grocery bags. In this post, we will delve into a related, and increasingly relevant topic: food deliveries and curbside pickup. Most grocery stores now offer some sort of curbside pickup program, so you don’t even have to set foot in the store to get your groceries. Many also offer delivery options, allowing you to shop from the comfort of your home. In addition to grocers, there are a number of other types of businesses that offer similar services including: meal deliveries, pet food companies, meat and fish markets, and of course restaurants. If your business offers food delivery or curbside pickup, investing in custom bags is something you should seriously consider.

We here at Bulletin Bag know bags. We LIVE bags. We’re constantly scoping out your laminated bags. More than a dozen years after the launch of our website, they’re STILL some of our top selling bags. Are you toting a bag with a design we haven’t seen? Eye catching color? Where DID you get that bag? Dorky, yes, but oh-so fun (for us)!
The other day, I was out and about. Let’s say I was at Target. Because that’s precisely where I was. A fellow shopper passed by me toting a small red laminated bag. Yep, that’s the one…a Lululemon bag! The thing about this bag, though, is that it was Tired-with-a-capital-T. I would not have been surprised if that bag had fallen apart right there in Aisle A 22.

If you’re looking for a small insulated tote bag, the Laminated Lunch Bag might be just the one for you! One of our staff testers, Deborah, recently took this bag out for an extended spin and was pleasantly surprised by it.
Deborah took this bag on her road trip home to Montana for the 2019 holiday season and she says “This is a really handy bag to have around! From the obvious use of taking lunch to work/school, to an all-around good bag to keep in the car just in case, I took this bag with me on a car trip this year and was able to pack just the right stuff for the road. I had cold water, a few small and special food items that needed to stay cool, and a place for some napkins in the outside pocket. And I had room to spare because once I opened my snack, I slid it into the handy outer mesh pocket for easy access while driving!” Continue reading
