Bet they'll end up on Ebay so check there. I got a green one, a pink one, and a yellow one - just lucky that they sold them 50 yards from where I pitched.

I got one on Friday, but then tried to go back and get a 'One day like this' one for my mum who's a huge elbow fan. Unfortunately they sold out so fast on Saturday and Sunday I missed out  :( .

If any of you lovely efests people have an elbow one you don't want, i'd happily take it off your hands. Will prob scout ebay too.....

Blimey ... £10.50 already!

Wish I'd bought more than one!

Tried to get one on the day but couldn't-all sold out and the news kiosks were all shut up.

But the rain poncho the day before was very useful.

can't believe people are selling them on for that much - they only cost £1 and you got the guardian too!

They should keep a stash of papers to sell without the damn bags.

Don't get me wrong, they were cool but maybe too cool: on the Sat everywhere had sold out -and seeing the people buying multiple copies I doubt it was to read the paper- and the same happened for me for the Observer on the Sunday. Ended up asking a random stranger who had bought two if they were planning on reading them both and they kindly gave me one of their papers for free though which was nice :)

I wanted a knapsack one like in previous years.

Next year I'll know to bring an old one, and not make assumptions!

Best free canvas bag ever. Perfectly shaped and sized for slinging booze and a jacket in and not so much of an issue taking it off.

I was left a present in the form of a yellow bag in my tent - still dont know who it was but thank you whoever you were from CT.

Bit of a mish on Sunday to get a green one but accomplished after all the bags from the rest of the site that had been sent out without enough papers got returned to the main shop in A.

It was very funny on friday morning when whilst sat at the Cider Bus, all the bags were pink around me, I ate my lunch for a short while and next time I looked up I was surrounded by a sea of yellow bags. The mission was then on to start collecting.

£40!! Eeek! I'm still after an elbow one for my mum, but i'm not paying that much..... Particularly when i know it originally cost £1!

Here's hoping one of you lovely people has one going spare....

My backpack got ruined (trampled in mud at Bangface - my fault).  So I got a Guardy bag (yellow).  Swapped it with some random bloke for his one (pink).  Then lost it (can't remember what it had in it - not much).
