California Innovations vs Improvements

Since today is an all food day on QVC I won't be watching at all but I did go over to look at HSN since it was free shipping day.

 

I saw their grocery bags made by "Improvements" and was wondering if anyone here has ever purchased them?  I have several from "California Innovaions" and love them but saw some on HSN with different patterns/colors for an OK price but based on those reviews don't know if they're worth it.

 

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the suggestion but I was wondering if anyone had purchased them and if they were just as good as California Innovations, the same quality, or not as good.

Thanks.

All I've seen on HSN today is food. It must not be all food on QVC because they had Denim & Co.  Pat had a couple hours of non-food items.  Sundays from late morning into the afternoon are always food shows so no surprisse there.

Ya, I guess you're right but since even ITKWD is a food show today too I'm passing, which is why I went over to HSN and clicked on kitchen and these totes were in that list.  I really liked the gray grouping but the reviews were just so so.  I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone had ever purchased the HSN totes.

The California Innovations bags I have are insulated. If you are looking for insulated the bags from Improvements on HSN are not insulated.

Thanks.  That answers one question. Are they made of the same material or cheaper, if you know.  :-)   I do have some I got from Amazon but the ones I chose seemed to be more papery than plasticy.  

 

Also, thanks to everyone who has responded. :-)
