Then you’ll want to hear this: The grocery store chain has dropped a new seasonal color just in time for winter—and shoppers have been quick to share their thoughts! If you’re looking to acquire another pretty shade of the bags, we have the scoop. Keep reading to learn more about the new tote bag color in stores now, plus what customers have to say about the unexpected product release popping up on Trader Joe’s shelves.
Trader Joe’s new insulated tote bag is a winter must-have
Trader Joe’s regularly drops new bags, and their popular insulated totes always steal the show! The retailer sells the handy bags, which are designed to hold about eight gallons’ worth of groceries,for $8.99. Best of all? Each tote includes a padded interior and zippered lid to help keep food cold or hot depending on your preference.
Part of what makes these bags so collectible is the variety of colors! Over the years, Trader Joe’s has released them in red, lavender and yellow to name a few, and this fall, an olive green version hit the shelves for a nature-inspired option.
Now the newest must-have shade has arrived: a gorgeous dusty blue that’s perfect for the season! An employee spotted the new bags at their local Trader Joe’s and shared the find on Reddit to alert eager customers.
Like the other insulated tote bags, this one costs $8.99, making it an affordable option for hauling perishable foods. It also features the same classic design with the image of the Trader Joe’s market in Pasadena, California, printed on the front.
What shoppers have to say about the new dusty blue bag
The news of the latest tote bag had fans buzzing, especially because the product isn’t even on the Trader Joe’s website yet! Most seem delighted by the seasonal shade of blue.
“Yeah that’s a nice color,” one shopper commented. “I already have the coral and purple. Do I need another one in dusty blue? YES!!”
A few Reddit users weren’t sure about the color at first glance online, with one sharing that they didn’t even realize it was one of the popular insulated bags when they saw a photo on Instagram.
“Didn’t like the color as the blue hue looked dirty,” they shared. The original poster, however, was quick to point out that the color was much more attractive in person.
Though feedback was positive overall, some began making jokes about yet another new color of the bag hitting the stores shelves.
“Would you guys stop telling my wife every time TJs has a new tote bag please? My house is full of tote bags,” someone joked, adding a laugh emoji. “How many tote bags could one possibly need? Luckily these things are not too expensive.”
Based on other comments like this, the enthusiasm for these bags is real!
How to find the new Trader Joe’s tote bag at your local store
If you’re one of the shoppers who love collecting the tote bags (or want to get your very first insulated bag), head to your nearest Trader Joe’s store as soon as possible! In busy locations, inventory might be minimal as customers quickly snatch them up.
One Reddit user revealed that the bags were almost completely sold out at a store in Fremont, California, yesterday. The employees had even set a limit of two bags per customer to ensure more shoppers would be able to get one.
The best place to look for one? “For [limited-time only] tote bags, they either put a big, huge bin somewhere near the entrance or checkout area,” the same shopper revealed. “Most of the bags are placed near the wall of [the] checkout area.”
Unable to find one? Consider asking a Trader Joe’s employee! They may be able to direct you to the bags or tell you if or when they may be receiving more.
A little silver lining: Even if the dusty blue sells out fast, Trader Joe’s loves dropping new colors throughout the year.
