$13.97 for 45 bags on Amazon or under $5.00 at Woodman's
2. How effective is it? Does it work?
These trash bags work great! No leaks. We have been using about one a week for the last 30 weeks and not one has broke, leaked, or even been an issue vs trash bags made from plastic. The fit in our trash can better and tie tight.

No Fragrance or noticeable smell

It arrived in an Amazon box with other products, no additional packaging than the box.

This product is recyclable however we use it to contain our trash that isn’t recyclable. The benefit lies more in the amount of resources used to make this trash bag.
