Okay, so, what *is* a Bogg Bag anyway? (Good question, me!) Apparently, it’s this super durable, washable tote. The kind that, according to the *actual* Bogg Bag people, “won’t tip over” and “the bottom won’t leak.” Sounds amazing, honestly. And hose-able? Game changer. My current tote is basically a petri dish of crumbs and random receipts. Ew.
But back to the dupes. Why even bother? Well, because you can snag a whole bunch of ’em wholesale and, like, make some serious cash. Or, you know, just have a mountain of totes for yourself. (No judgement here.)
Finding the *right* dupe, though, that’s the trick. You don’t want some flimsy thing that’s gonna fall apart after one trip to the beach. I saw one online that claimed to be a dupe, but the handles looked like they were made of dental floss. Hard pass.
What *should* you look for? Well, according to that other blurb up there, a good dupe has a “single compartment (for easy packing).” That makes sense. Less pockets, less chance of things getting lost in the abyss. Plus, you want something that *looks* kinda like a Bogg Bag. You know, the holey, slightly-rubbery aesthetic.
Honestly, I think the key is finding a balance between price and quality. You wanna get ’em cheap wholesale, duh, but you also want them to be, like, *actually usable*. Maybe order a sample batch from a couple different suppliers? See which ones hold up to, uh, my rigorous testing (aka, me throwing all my junk in it and dragging it around).
And, you know, while you’re at it, maybe get a few for your friends? Spread the dupe love! Because seriously, ain’t nobody got time for overpriced totes. Especially when there are perfectly good (and cheaper!) alternatives out there.
