Grocery bags are pretty useful, so we start saving them one by one and before we know it we either have a whole big pile of bags that fly at us every time the cabinet opens or a giant bag filled with more bags that take up a lot of room.

Well, I have the all-time BEST hack you will ever see! (I found this hack while scrolling through Instagram!) This method of storing bags costs ZERO dollars and works better than any grocery bag organizer I’ve ever seen.

Follow these easy 5 steps and prepare to be mind blown!

Step 1: Fold All Bags Vertically Inch By Inch

You have to fold each bag individually until you are left with all the bags like strips that are a little over an inch wide.

Step 2: Fold The Top Of The First Bag Diagnoally And Starting Rolling From The Same Side

Only the very first bag will have a diagonal fold at the top. After folding start rolling the bag leaving the folded part out.

Step 3: When There Is About 2 Inches Left Add The Next Bag And Continue Rolling. Repeat Until No Bags Left

All you have to do is keep inserting one bag after the other until all bags are gone and you are left with a nice roll. When you have more bags and you want to add them onto the roll all you have to do is unroll 2 inches (as shown below) and add in the bag.

Step 4: Find A Container To Fit Bags In (Old Clorox Container or Mason Jar)

Use any container you have available to store your bags. If your container is plastic it’s even better as you can slice the top into an ‘x’ and make for easy bag access.

Step 5: Take Out As You Would A Kleenex
