After the massive success of tote bag sales earlier this year, Trader Joe’s has restocked their shelves by bringing back the viral mini canvas tote bags. However, they are available for a limited period only. The mini tote bags, priced at $2.99, are a miniature version of the American grocery store chain’s classic bags. These classic products, which feature Trader Joe’s logo in red, come in four different colors – green, blue, yellow, and red.
Trader Joe’s mini tote bags retailing for $2.99 have people lining up around the block
Since the announcement, customers have been lining up at Trader Joe’s stores to get their hands on the viral mini tote bags, which come in four colors and are available to purchase at $2.99. On September 18, a spokesperson from the grocery store chain talked to USA TODAY about the launch of the limited-edition smaller totes. They stated, “The next round of mini totes will launch nationwide today,” further continuing, “The totes are a limited product rather than an everyday product at this time.”
At the beginning of the year, the mini tote bags from Trader Joe’s became extremely popular. So much so that people waited in queue to get their hands on the product. Even several videos on social media showed long lines of shoppers to buy the mini tote bags at the stores. Moreover, Trader Joe’s employees had to limit the number of tote bags customers could buy.
In March, a representative of Trader Joe’s, Nakia Rohde, told the news outlet that the “mini canvas tote bags certainly sold more quickly than we anticipated.” They further revealed that their customers found the mini totes before they could even start promoting them. Rohde continued, “Before we had the opportunity to promote them in any way, customers across the country found them at their neighborhood Trader Joe’s.”
As of now, it is unclear whether there will be an ample amount of product supply this time due to the high market demand. Hence, customers may want to act fast to grab one of these mini tote bags before they are out of stock.
