EatingWell's Editorial Guidelines Published on March 1, 2024 Trending Videos Close this video player Photo: Courtesy of Brand One of the most iconic purchases at Trader Joe’s isn’t a food item at all. It’s their classic tote bag perfect for carrying groceries to and fro—and honestly, it’s cute enough for everyday use. If you’re looking for a bag of the same style but a little bit smaller, you’re in luck. The grocery chain must have read our minds, because they just soft launched an adorable miniature version of the classic bag, and the internet took notice. The 7 Best Breakfast Items at Trader Joe's, According to a Food Writer “Run to Trader Joe’s, we got mini canvas tote bags!” a Trader Joe’s employee announced on TikTok earlier this week. The video has surpassed 1.7 million views, so it’s clear that fans of the store are, in fact, running to buy them out. The viral bag is 13 inches long, 11 inches tall and 6 inches wide. In other words, it can fit one chihuahua. If you’re looking to justify this purchase even further, Trader Joe’s offered some suggestions on how to use the bag on their website: “The size is ideal for smaller shopping trips, to pick up those few items you forgot the first time around,” the product description reads. “It'll fit a dozen of your favorite TJ's apples, or you can fill your Mini Tote with TJ's snacks and sweets to keep you munching on your next road trip.” The best part? They’re only $2.99 each—yes, you heard it right. It’s cheaper than your favorite snack, so snag a bag, or two, or three (we’re not judging!). It may vary by store if their stock of mini totes are in, so call up your local Trader Joe’s and get the scoop if you’re looking to buy one ASAP. Should You Worry About Lead in Your Tumbler?
