Default For Sale: Bulk Supply of Re-usable Nylon Dog Poo Bags

About 20 years ago my dad had a bunch of these #2 Solutions made...they're little bags that Velcro onto a dog leash. When your dog does its business, pull out a plastic bag from the zippered washable nylon pouch, pick up the mess, and put the bag back into the #2 Solution.

This is a less digusting way of carrying around dog poo so others don't have to see it (we all hate seeing somebody walking around with a giant scheizen dangling from a safeway bag in their hand).

Spoiler for Size:
Spoiler!

These are really well made and the people I've given them away to over the years love them. I probably have a few hundred in a box in my basement that I scooped after my dad died. I'd be interested in selling the whole lot (perhaps to somebody that wants to hussle these at dog parks/dog shows/to pet stores/etc.).

The CalgaryPuck unit price would be $3.00 each, but you'd have to take them all. If there is any serious interest I'll count them all up. I could see these retailing for $5 each (at least) so this is a great opportunity for somebody out there to make some money.

This is all to help the innocent virgin eyes of bystanders? While making the job of the owner quite harrowing (ewwy zipper)?

Would this post be considered "ironic"?

Or should I be checking my chardonnay for flies?

How big are these things?

I'm just wondering if you could use these for baby diapers.

I don't have any with me, but they're about 7" long. They're like a tube with a 3" diameter. I think they'd be too small for baby diapers.

This thread makes me howl.

Are you actually serious about these things or are you trolling us? You seriously should audition for dragon's den with this. Pretty sure they would air this one.
Hah, I am serious.

I guess it depends on the size of dog how much poo would fit in there. Maybe they're too small for a large dog...I'm not sure as I'm not really a dog guy.

I use them all around my house for various dumb things like storing my hair clippers and stuff. They are good quality.

I'm definitely not going on Dragon's Den. These things are kind of ridiculous. I remembered today that there were more like 1000 originally and I threw the big box of them out and just kept this one box. Tell you what, if you get on Dragon's Den with these you can have them all and claim the idea as your own. That would be awesome.

Not a dog owner myself, but I was curious if this was actually a good / marketable idea. Seems like biodegradable bags are the way to go now:

Sorry to poop on the party! Would love to see it on Dragons' Den anyways, just to see the reaction
