I used to use gallon twist tie bags a lot. Then the local grocery store stopped selling them in favor of much more expensive plastic bags. Haven't yet checked with amazon.
Were they baggies? My shoprite used to have sales on those about 3 times a year where they'd be 99 cents a box. At one point, I had about 25 boxes. But then they discontinued them and only offer the private label for 1.99 for 75- and these NEVER go on sale. If doubling the price was bad enough, the new bags are narrower/taller (10" wide rather than the 11.5" they used to be), so they're exponentially harder to get food into. A new Wegmans opened near me so I checked their offerings. Identical bag, identical price
I haven't gone this route yet, because you have to commit to a large amount, and I'm not sure that thinner bags work for my needs (or the material), but the Webstaurant store offers large rolls of produce bags.
With shipping, these are a penny a bag, and they're 12" wide. But you have to buy a huge amount (3500 bags) and you have to store them. Each roll is going to be pretty large as well, so it won't fit in a drawer.
