| Does anyone know how much a Sherpa bag costs? I bought a carry bag for my puppies in WalMart about a month ago. It's still in the plastic wrapper cause I wouldn't take one that was sitting open when there was one in the wrapper right beside it. I haven't needed to use it yet so it's not opened. We were out house hunting today and when it started getting hot we headed home, we stopped into a couple of thrift stores we passed on the way. We didn't really want to come home, see? No air in the car either. I was just looking at everything, picked up a few things, walked by the luggage, purses and backpacks area. There was a green bag sitting on the floor. Well, I'm always on the lookout for something that will hold everything in my purse plus the kitchen sink, so I pick it up. It had a double zipper on the top and lots of zippers all around, I thot it was some kind of overnight bag. I picked up the flap on top and there was this piece of, oh shoot, you know that stuff that looks like sheeps fur? I forget what it is called. I wondered why it was in a purse or overnight bag. About that time it hit me that the sides were net and the tag said Sherpa! I'm sure my husband thot I had gone nuts! I grabbed that bag like our babies guard their food and put in the top part of the basket. The part where kids sit? I had my purse there and I was making sure no one, NO ONE could slip that bag away from me without a fight breaking out!!!! LOL I didn't care how much it cost, I knew it wouldn't cost as much as if it were new, umm, let me change that to as if it were straight from the factory, cause it is new, brand new. I don't think it's ever been used. My dogs didn't sniff at it at all. It cost me $20, was it a good deal? I mean for a "used" Sherpa bag? I think it's a good deal for me cause otherwise I never would have gotten one. LOL Sylvia |

| Sherpa I have no idea how much retail would be but if you found something that made you that happy for $20, good for you. You can't buy much of any kind of carrier for less than $20 and if you spent more than that on the one you had bought from the store and its still in its original packaging, you can return it and be money ahead. Enjoy! Donna |

| As I remember we paid about $35 for a new one for the smallest size. So I guess it was a good deal! |

| LOL I'm not worried about the other one. One of my sil's has a teeny tiny champion show Poodle and has promised my other sil a puppy. I figure I'll give it to her as a gift. It's too late for her birthday but I don't know when she's supposed to get her puppy so maybe it will do for a Christmas present. We went into Petsmart today to get more food and I looked at their Sherpa bags. They were marked down but the size I have was going for $60. I don't know if it's the largest size but it will hold my 6 & 7# dogs. LOL Only one at a time of course. But I can get 2 - 3.12# dogs in it. LOL I haven't tried the puppies yet. Sylvia |

| $20 for any bag that's cute is a steal...I think if you bought it at a retail store it would definitly be a lot more money. |
