I always bought cheap trash bags until a landlord showed me the math

Spent $3 on a 30-pack of no-name bags and had one rip open on me every other day. Ponying up $8 for the Glad ForceFlex has saved me about 5 cleanup hassles in the last month alone. Has anyone else found a brand that's worth the switch?

Wait, what? 38 count? No wonder I felt ripped off buying the 30-pack at the dollar store. @hugo_coleman28 you just blew my mind with that math, man. I figured they were all the same size box but now I gotta check everything.

38 pack not 30. The Glad ForceFlex usually comes in a 38 count for the kitchen size. I checked because I bought a box last week. But you're right about the math. I switched to the Costco Kirkland bags and they work just as good for about half the price per bag. Those cheap ones are a false economy for sure. Nothing worse than mopping up trash juice at 6 in the morning.
