Why thousands of shoppers are flocking to Coles for new $3 item: ‘Shut up and take my money’

Supermarket shopping just got a whole lot chicer, with Coles launching a range of fun, printed reusable bags featuring the iconic character Miffy.

From just $3, shoppers can pick up the new Large Strawberries Chiller Bag or Miffy Tote Bag to make their shopping experience a little easier, and a whole lot more colourful.

The bargain price tag makes these one of the most affordable ways update your food shopping game.

‘This one is definitely for the girlies right now,’ customer Roxy Baker said in her video before showing off her Strawberries Chiller Bag.

‘Look at this freezer bag that Coles has brought out… It’s the little things in adult life that amuse me.’
