IRK Bags
6I never realized how many IRK’s I bought until I gathered up all the bags that came with them, and a couple of questions come to mind: 1) does anyone know how many/what colors these came in? and 2) Is there a market for the IRK bags? Collectors? Hoarders? HTF color? Anyone?

The IRK bag I want most is the one I don’t have…
…like everything else in life.
@ybmuG which one is that??? Or do you mean the NEXT one
@tinamarie1974
Yes
I want the one that comes with the Cuisinart food processor.
@Kyeh Yep. That’s the one I need too.
@Kyeh
And a shark cordless vacuum
@Kyeh
I gave up and bought one at Xmas time so I’ll probably get it my next irk.
@Star2236 Right!
I’d take one with a speaker cause apparently mine don’t work w/ my computer anymore…
@amehzinggrace
The benefit is that the Irk videos are now silent.
@amehzinggrace Maybe I can help!
@PooltoyWolf you have my attention…
@amehzinggrace Describe the symptoms from your speakers to me?
I’ve got three colors. I’m in no particular hurry to get more, but I won’t complain if it happens. I like having the big Meh bags for the low-weight groceries, and the smaller bags from everybody else for the heavier stuff.
Yellow is supposed to be a rare color. I’ve also got the natural and a meh fanny pack.
@Kyser_Soze
Yellow and white are the ones I need, don’t know what I’m going to do with my collection.
@Kyser_Soze I’ve never seen that ‘simplified’ artwork design before.
@Kyser_Soze @PooltoyWolf You sure? My first Irk bag was black and came with that simple design. I was sad because I wanted the complex design. It took me a couple of months to realize that the back of the bag DOES have the complex design on it. Duh!
So try checking your bags - you might have one with it.
@Kyeh @Kyser_Soze When did you get your first one? Also never thought to see if the design is always the same on both sides.
@Kyser_Soze @PooltoyWolf
It was the Sidedeal Irk, on April 1st, 2020.
@Kyser_Soze I had given a lot away. Someone said the yellow was rare & the pic I have was before giving it to my daughter, but she just gave it back to me a month ago. I’m not sure of other colors I’ve given away & I won’t be getting any more because if I’m not paying $5/mo, it’s not possible to get an irk, but it also makes everything else sold here more expensive, so I quit buying junk I don’t need! I consider the $5/mo savings a form of therapy!
@Kyeh @Kyser_Soze Gotcha.
@Kyser_Soze @PooltoyWolf
I got curious and checked all my bags. The black one and the yellow one that @cbilyak kindly gave me are the only two with the alternate design on the back. So I guess it’s kind of rare, maybe…
Maybe they need to start making tie-dye ones next.
@Kyeh LOVE that idea!!
My kids think they are the most useful bags and use them all the time…especially when they are giving things away…smh
If you can’t have the IRK bag you love, baby, love the one you have… Doo
doo doo doo Doo doo doodoo…
Of the big IRK bags I can verify Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Purple, Black, and Tan. I can see Green above as well
@Tiamat114
Navy blue AND royal blue!
Oh, and a few people recently got maroon ones.
would rather have fuku/fuko bags back.
Seriously…I don’t care what color…I just want an irk bag
Just yesterday, I went through a bunch of IRKs I merely inspected and stashed away! Out of those, I have 9 colors. Pic below. I do have at least 1 yellow…but, it’s in storage right now holding stuff…along with both the green and red fukubukaro.
I think there’s been 10 colors total? The only one that I believe I’m missing is the white? Of course, it’s the one I wanted most too.
@PHRoG That would make 11.
@Kyeh
…yup, 3 hours of sleep evidently makes simple math hard. 
@PHRoG Yikes! I can’t do anything on 3 hours sleep.
I’ve found that if you hold an Irk bag up to the moon at midnight then the light that filters through will display what the next winning lottery ticket numbers are.
Looks like I have mostly red and black ones. I did give a bunch of them out at xmas time so people could carry their gifts home
Gave the few I had out as Christmas gift bags. I can’t wrap packages. My daughter’s cat loved it. Dragged it around the house, laid on it, refused to give it up.
I have a rainbow but am missing the iconic yellow. That is absolutely on my wishlist!
