ZSMICHAELPlastic shipping bags
I have some clothing I need to return. They always arrive in these sealed shipping bags. Anyone know where I may acquire these?

arfmelI generally save whatever they delivered the merchandise in and reuse it. Just slit it to open it, and tape it back up to return it.

Set this on the porch, while the driver is screaming and crying over spilt milk, you can get all the bags you need from the truck.
Yer welcome.

MikeinNCThe USPS (shitty as they may be) have a tyvek mailer by the boxes for priority shipping, usually inside where your drop off items-to pay

NismoIf they are poly wrapped and heat sealed, they may not come individually, but in a big continuous roll.

GustoferDuct tape.
Seriously.
I once returned (Amazon) a Purple Mattress (I was wooed by the blonde German-looking girl).
Ever try to get an entire vacuum sealed queen sized mattress back into...well...anything?
Duct tape. And they took it.
(My UPS guy wasn't real happy with me, but we're still friends, so it all worked out)

Fly-SigMy wife has
some experience with returning online purchased clothing. Her philosophy is buy 3 or 4 variations, but only keep one.
She says use anything to package up the returns. She'll cut up a brown paper grocery bag, or reuse a bag from another item. You might be able to use an envelope or bag available at the shipping point (UPS, FEDEX, post office).
Use packing tape to seal up any tears in a bag you reuse.

FenderBenderIf its an Amazon return the shipping bags are unnecessary. In fact you can get same day credit for returns to whole foods.

Yep. 98% of the time, my Amazon returns involve simply dropping the item off at a UPS Store or Whole Foods. No box/bag/packaging needed, just the item itself and the return barcode. The store is responsible for packaging the return and shipping it back.

comet24I used to use the Amazon ones if I had to return something to them. Just tape it back together.

BigWhupKohl's also takes the Amazon returns with no packaging needed, but I did not get the impression we are talking about Amazon here.
