OXO Good Grips Bag Cinch - 3 Pack

These will transform your bread-storing experience. Every time you remove and discard one of those twist-ties or plastic tabs and replace it with one of these, you will feel a great sense of accomplishment - you have made the world a better place. Simple, cheap, and sturdy. They work best on bread wrappers or other lighter weight bags; they will work on some medium weight bags such as a freezer bag of fruit, but they aren't designed to be used on heavier bags. Anyone who sees them comments on what a great idea they are. Get some and impress you friends and family.

One of the problems with my husband is after 15 years marriage, we would twist the twist tie the opposite direction. Then there was the problem of finding where you put the twist tie down. It keeps the contents as fresh as a twist. All of that is solved with these Good Grips cinch. We keep them in the front of our cooking utensil drawer and with their bright colors are easy to find. We now have 9 of them. I do not want to run out of them. I have always loved the OXO brand, as to me it means a good product.

Thanks for making this Good Gripper cincher! I've become so tired of reusing the twist ties that come on plastic bags to reclose them, and my old fingers don't twist like they used to.These grippers are good in the kitchen for bread, chips, and cereal bags, etc., in the laundry to hang dry delicates on hangers w/o leaving marks, around the house to group cables (be careful about potential overheating--even with the big brand name reusable stick&clip gadgets this can happen ), in the closet to keep scarves/delicates on hangers, and they even clip together graded sets of papers if I'm in a pinch.These "cinchers" are FANTASTIC!

love these, as they work well on bags. you know how once you take the twisty ties off of the plastic bag from loaves of bread you can never find it again? this solves that problem. large enough to use easily, just push down, insert bag, and let go. easy peasy. now my bread will stay fresh and look cute--unlike the basic ratchety twist ties. (ok, i got a little extra there, but you get my point.)

Like everyone, I guess, I have been continually irritated with the overall inefficiency of twist ties -- or worse, the dreaded bread-bag plastic clip -- as a means of re-closing a plastic bag. These Oxo clips do as good a job holding a plastic bag tightly closed as does a tightly twisted twist tie (and a million times better than trying to reuse a plastic clip). And they are super, super easy to use -- much easier than a twist tie. Besides that sheer utility, because of their bright colors, they easy to spot in the drawer and easy to see once applied, to confirm bag closure. Mild caveats: (1) These don't do a dramatically *better* job than a twist tie -- but they're just as good and much, much more usable. So, based on my experience and observation, I would not use these to close a food bag going into the freezer, just as I would not use a twist tie for that purpose, since that closure method admits air. (2) The aperture where the twisted bag is inserted in the Oxo clip is relatively small, although more than roomy enough for a twisted thin-plastic bag (such as a grocery-store produce bag or bread bag). I would not try to use if for a stiff chips bag -- for those I use a tight folding held in place by a bag clip.

Takes just a few seconds to twist a bread bag and attach this to close it. Faster, easier and more secure than twist ties and the ridiculous plastic closures on bread and bakery bags. I have used these on items stored in the freezer with no problem. So easy to use they should be great for people with stiffness or pain in their fingers since they require minimal pressure to open. Dishwasher safe and inexpensive.

Such a simple yet highly effective design made of quality materials meant to last for years. I'm sure sure how I've survived all these years without these handy closures, but they make closing and opening bag utilizing a twist closure so much easier than wire twist ties or those crap plastic clasps. Well worth the small price tag.
