Trader Joe's bags are a hot item
Who knew?

And I so don't get it...

Why $2.99 Trader Joe’s mini tote bags are selling for hundreds and taking over TikTok

The bags are the latest unexpected viral accessories to have taken off in the last year.

I don’t get it either. We, and probably most people, acquire a multiplicity of tote bags over time without even thinking about it. Why you would pursue a TJ bag and pay a premium for it is beyond me.
