There is an exciting news for Trader Joe's lovers. Released a week ago, the grocer's highly anticipated 2024 mystery bags are now in store. Each pack includes three reusable, artistically designed bags for just $3, making them $1 per bag. Beyond the budget-friendly price, these bags offer a unique opportunity to collect designs not typically available in the local stores.
Trader Joe's has been a staple for reusable bags since introducing its first one in 1977, with some designs becoming highly sought after, like the mini tote craze of March 2024. Securing these in-demand items often requires quick action, and the Mystery Bags are no exception. To ensure you snag one before they sell out, it's best to visit your local store as early as possible.
Shoppers have shown such enthusiasm that some have purchased multiple sets, with three to five packs being a common haul. The bags feature various U.S. locations, including states, cities, and regions, adding an element of surprise as customers never know which designs they will receive.
Usually, Trader Joe's locations only carry bag designs specific to their area, along with a few specialty options. Although all the bags are the same size, this setup allows customers to expand their collection without any repeat designs. However, if you miss out, you may need to visit a couple of different stores to track one down.
Some shoppers have even discovered retired Trader Joe’s bag designs in their mystery bags, like the Fearless Flyer bag, inspired by the store’s flyer, and the Orange Chicken bag, perfect for carrying the Mandarin Orange Chicken.

YouTuber Angel who runs the channel Angel’s Roots made an unboxing video of the mystery bags on November 10, 2024, in which she showed two bags with designs of Florida and Kentucky. While unboxing the bag, she said,
