The bag is GREAT. Many uses and takes up zero space. I have like 10. Keep some folded up in the car to hold multiple bags of groceries. Laundry. Sports stuff. Beach towels. Camping. Folded up in a backpack for quick extra storage. Getting Christmas decor down from an attic. Trash collection (just hose it off). Even a couple of drills and a circular saw (if done carefully). Bonus tip: use a large carabiner to hang it up from the back of a car seat for multi-level storage when low on trunk space.

I use 2 bags and load them up with bricks (58 lb per bag - slightly more than they're rated) and perform farmer's carry with them.

Community Reviews

Harbor Freight's free gift promo stands out most for the XXL carry bag, which gets praised as a compact, tarp like tote with lots of real uses, from groceries and laundry to camping, trash collection, and hauling tools. The microfiber towels also draw interest, especially when the bag is priced around 79 to 99 cents. The cable ties get the weakest reception, and the tape measure raises a safety concern because thin metal tapes can cut fingers when retracting. Coupon stacking also appears inconsistent at checkout, so the deal works best when the free item is the bag.

that's true, they probably don't care, not like these are very expensive items
If HF cared at all, the computer would flag the phone number on your account having already used the coupon.

The fact that the computer does not flag you, tells you it's OK to get back in line.

I dont have one that big so it seems like a good one to get. Those are some good ideas, esp trash collection (I'm thinking of for gardening)

OK I guess but they used to offer better stuff and more often. Be careful with cheap tape measures. Thin metal tapes can slice your finger when it retracts.

They were .99 at one of my local stores. I haven't checked the other two today. Since they didn't stack on the DotD purchase, not worth checking on those stores today. Maybe if there is another DotD that interests me this weekend.

What are you using zip ties in that these won't work on? I've used these same one for years outdoors and automotive and had zero issues.

I have some of both. They are just as good. Probably the exact same but I've never compared them that closely.

Also automotive. The set I had became brittle over a short period of time. I have swapped over to the Anoson assorted sizes from Amazon and never looked back.

I guess your tape measures are magical non-disappearing tape measures.

My store figured DotD stacking. For example, I got the free tape measure. Scan the tape measure, scan the free item coupon, then scan the DotD item after. They sent the steps to their IT team. I wonder how long for them to get the memo out. Happy HB shopping. I wont need the Shittsburgh jacks that are tomorrow's DotD. Buy a bag, get a bag it is.

This ends up becoming an inventory problem. When you actually organize yourself you find that you have 10 plus tape measuring tools. 😂 Just saying that this isn't generally worth dropping by and getting the free gift for considering in the past they've given wrench kits and socket kits and four packs of ratchet straps. The gift value is non-existent now.
