From Betsey in Iowa about Finding Ziploc Brand Storage Bags with the Smart Zip Seal in the Half Gallon Size

I have spent the last two years looking for the half-gallon Ziplocs in stores all over the midwest and west. One store, Menards, which is 30 miles away, has carried them, but no more. Those of us who use them, love them, but we are frustrated! Do we have to order them on-line or can you put them back on our grocery shelves? - Betsey from Iowa

Hi there Betsey from Iowa – We’re happy to hear from you!

We’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble finding Ziploc® Brand Storage Bags with the Smart Zip® Seal in the half gallon size.

We’re happy to tell you they are still being sold in food, drug and mass merchandise stores around the country. You may want to talk with store managers in your area to see if they would consider putting them back on store shelves. Much as we’d like every one of our products to be carried in every store, the stores make the decision about what they stock.

In the meanwhile, the bags area available through our Mail Order Service. Just call 800-848-2588 to check product availability and pricing or place an order. They’re open Monday - Friday, 8 am - 6 pm CT.

As you may already know, they’re also available online at Amazon.com and Drugstore.com.

Good luck!
