Calling all lovers of Trader Joe’s tote bags — they’re back! Yes, the viral mini canvas tote bags are officially back in stock as of April 8. Trader Joe’s has launched their limited-edition tote bag for the season, and people are flocking to the stores to grab them. These new bags have a fresh twist — they’re pastel-colored, bright, and truly capture the essence of spring. Priced at just $2.99, these bags come in four vibrant colors: green, purple, pink and blue. 

If you’re a Trader Joe’s enthusiast like me, then you know this is not the time to wait — these bags will be gone in a flash. Unsure if you need one (or several)? Consider using these mini totes bags in many ways: as a cute lunch bag, a handy shopping bag, or even just a fun, go-to carryall. Plus, their bright, pastel colors add a cheerful touch.

Unsurprisingly, people on TikTok are snapping them up as quickly as they’re being stocked and leaving comments like, “the PURPLE I need,” “I need them all 😍,” “I want them all 😍,” and “Oh wow 😍😍😍.”

If this doesn’t scream, “head to Trader Joe’s ASAP,” I don’t know what does! You can find these totes in the aisles or near the register. However, due to overwhelming demand for the bags, it’s a good idea to call your store beforehand to confirm stock availability and to check any purchase limits. Act fast before they’re gone — you don’t want to miss out on this must-have release.
