Popular $2.99 Trader Joe’s tote bags resold for a shocking $500 — are they the new Stanley Tumbler?
NY Post
A tote bag from Trader Joe’s might be the newest item to quench people’s thirst to stay on trend.
The grocery store’s latest limited item is a mini tote bag that comes in navy, yellow, red and green — and customers are rushing to their closest TJ’s to grab one.
The bags, which are sold for $2.99 in stores, are now so popular, they’re even being resold on eBay at astronomical prices due to the high demand for the limited-edition item.
A listing offers a set of the Trader Joe’s mini canvas tote in all four colors — for a whopping $500.
Another listing is selling just one mini tote for a price tag of $280.
Their extreme popularity is even being compared to the craze over the Stanley Tumbler, which has become an unexpected phenomenon — and has even become a status symbol.
