Advantages: They're very cheap!

Disadvantages: Not very strong!

Well I am always wanting to save money! And things like bin bags are the type of things you can either buy for £3 or 30p, and well if I can get um for 30p I'm going to lol!!!

Tesco is just a few minutes walk from me, and so I tend to go there when I run out of little things like bin bags, cling film etc. And, one time, we got ourselves Tesco Value bin bags. They were around 30p, possibly a few pence more or less, but around that price for 30 bin bags, which I thought was good this was until I got them home!

As I have mentioned in previous reviews, I live on the top floor of a 3 story apartment block, and there are no rubbish chutes, or the likes. We have big shed type things with big red bins in where we have to take our rubbish. Now as we;re on the top floor, this is a very annoying task at 11 o'clock at ngiht, and isn't the type of thing you can do in your jammies and slippers unless you want to be severely laughed at!! So, our bin bags do tend to get full before we take them down to the bins to save us hundreds of trips!

But these bags just are not stong enough! With more expensive bags, you can put a few glass bottles (wine!!!!), and other heavy items in before the bag gets weakened, these bags barely even hold one wine bottle without ripping! And if you put in one of those plasic containers, you know the type you get meat in them from the supermarket, they rip the bag straight away and you end up with juice all over the bin!!!! Or worse floor!!!!

I tend to find myself haveing to use two or three bags at once so that the bag is stronger!!! I would only recommend these bags for small things, light things, maybe paper or cans, and get some more expensive ones for heavier rubbish!

Summary: They're ok for lighter rubbish, but not very good for everyday rubbish!
