SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
Because we value prospective customers from all over the world, we are proud to offer international shipping services that currently operate in over 200 countries and islands world wide.* While our shipping service is FREE, it is important that you take the time out to read our FULL shipping policy prior to making your purchase.
For example, as a Prepare FOUR valued customer living within US, you get to enjoy the exceptional service of purchasing MADE IN USA high quality products that are packaged by hand, shipped from (w/in 3-5 Business Days), manufactured and distributed within the U.S., with a FAST, reliable, FREE SHIPPING service, and a NO MINIMUM PURCHASE policy that requires no additional fees.
To receive your packages quicker, WHEREVER APPLICABLE, United States buyers, click to HIGHLIGHT the "SHIPS FROM" USA option. European buyers, please click the "SHIPS FROM" option to HIGHLIGHT the country of your choice (this accommodates and expedites your shipment to be delivered from the pertinent region that is much closer to your area).
Keep in mind that some imported products may have longer delivery times than others depending on the supplier's warehouse location. Unless it is noted otherwise (within the product's description) and/or unless the "SHIPS FROM USA” option is available, please be aware (prior to placing your order) that some imported products might have a delivery time of 14-21 business days or longer during an impending crisis or disaster. This does not include unexpected delays due to worldwide holidays. For example, items that ship from Asia during their Chinese New Year may take up to 21 business days between FEBRUARY 4 to 20.
*While our store offers the luxury of purchasing products from all over the world-at affordable prices-with WORLDWIDE FREE SHIPPING, we fully understand that delivery times within this context may not be suitable for anyone with an urgent or immediate type of survival planning. That is why we would like to keep you fully informed before you make your purchases.
We are working hard to meet all of our customer's needs. Nothing means more to us than bringing our customers great value and friendly service. For this reason, we offer a no-nonsense, transparent shipping policy with no gimmicks (stating an item is “free” then charging you with an outrageous shipping fee-per item-during checkout). We believe you deserve honesty and a transparent way of doing business. That is why we price our items at an affordable price with a lower profit margin to help pay for the cost of shipping ourselves. As a Prepare FOUR valued customer, we are happy to always offer you exceptional service.

Very cute- my aunt will love it!
I love it! It was a gift for my aunt. She loves cows! Thanks.
Very well made, super cute, large bag.
Just what I needed. Beautiful cow picture. Save our
A little smaller then I was expecting
Really nice product, I use it as a lunch bag. Very well made and durable material :-)
This bag is a nice canvas with handles. The cow pic is absolutely adorable! Fast shipping! Would order again!
Sturdy canvas. No smell. Roomy.
So cute! I wish everyone I knew were farmers/ animal lovers. I'd buy more! I'll probably need one of the pig ones for myself in the future!!
We have purchased these grocery bags before. They are strong and they are easy to fold and use. We really like them.
I just received the bags, so I don't know how durable or easy to clean they are. They are of high quality.
These are great, hold loads and seem very durable.
these are REALLY heavy duty bags. i honestly can not imagine them failing to do the job. the handles are a little bit too long, but no big deal, just tie a knot in them to make a little shorter.
Excellent shopping bags. I wish at least one of the slotted pockets along the inside was sewn at the bottom. Still, tall things will stand up in them if there is stuff also in the middle (think: bottle o’ wine). Super sturdy, nice looking and they fold up pretty small to throw in the trunk.
They're as expected. They all seem to be pretty close in size. Hope they don't shrink.. haven't used them.
After a couple of weeks of use, I have confidence that these canvas bags will endure many years of my use and abuse! Shopping store baggers, also, delighted me when I discovered that they had been making use sidewall sleeves without needing to be told.
I bought these to deliver my Holiday Gifts. Everyone loved the bag. My daughter love the bottle holders, my other daughter loved that they are organic, my nephew was wowed by the craftsmanship and strength! Thank you for such a great product.
Excellent quality and materials I feel good about using. The bags are sturdy, comfortable to carry, and their flat bottoms fit groceries well. I’m very pleased with this purchase and would buy them as a gift.
Although these are a little awkward to load at a grocery store, I love how much they hold and how easy they are to carry.
I like these bags. After washing I hang to dry until light damp and then pop in dryer for about 5 mins or so to soften fabric. They did shrink a little from 1st wash but have held up quite well. They are sturdy and very useful for many needs. Happy.
Incredibly happy with this purchase. These bags are thick and STURDY and just the right size to fit in the grocer's bagging area. The bottom isn't tapered, the seams are secure, and the handles aren't too long.
The bag is not so big that it would be hard to carry if full but not so small that it won’t hold anything. The inside slots are perfect for bottles and things you don’t want rolling around. The fabric is thick but still folds easily. Really, it is a simple but great shopping bag.
I needed some new ones to replace my very old canvas grocery bags. I actually like the bottle straps inside. Vinegar, spaghetti sauce and wine bottles are kept from clanging. I liked them so well that I have bought another pack of three. I haven't washed them yet and will update if there is a problem.
These canvas bags are fantastic! They are strong and durable. I don't worry if the straps will break because they are securely stitched to the bag. They are wide and comfortable - no cutting into your shoulders because the contents are heavy. The bags have internal pockets for easy organization and so that you don't loose the small things. I use these for grocery shopping. They could easily be used for the beach or pool.
I love this bag. It is very pretty, and is made of cotton, which by the way will shrink quite a bit if you put it in the dryer, so lay it flat to dry and use cold water. It actually holds more groceries than I first thought, and it holds many books as well. Down with plastic! Save the poor sea creatures! And it is so pretty that it makes a nice gift bag for birthdays, etc. Highly recommend it!
These are the best canvas grocery shopping bags I’ve found anywhere. They are made from heavy canvas that holds up to heavy loads like canned goods. They clean beautifully and are ready to go again. If you need sturdy and durable bags these are for you. I now have 18 of these bags purchased a few at the time because they are expensive but worth every penny paid for them. Every time I go grocery shopping the baggers want to know where I got my nice bags. These bags aren’t made from flimsy, light weight canvas.
