Can anyone tell me if the twist em up triple busking bag can be used without the loop system roll ups.  I prefer to wrap my balloons similarly to Graham and would like a triple busking bag, but don't want to spend if it has to be used with the roll ups.

I believe the roll up is just a push fit into the bag so that you have the choice.
I have a triple bag on the website;

I looked at yours too Graham, but I like the extra pockets on the outside of the triple bag.  I can stick extras in there like loose change etc if needed.

With the triple, I got three sets of loops which I found wasn't enough. They were loose in the bag. I found it much better the way Graham suggested, I wouldn't go back to the loop system now.

Have to say I have found Graham's system of wrapping balloons for your bag excellent, and means no extra cost as you use the bag they came in to tie them together.  Looks like the busking bag is an option then if you do the same.

Just to confirm all the busking bags that I sell also have the extra pockets on the outside :)

Hi Graham,

I think you should take another photo of your busking bag for your website. The reason I brought mine elsewhere is because I didn't think yours had pockets, and I liked the material you use as well.

Here's the pic I saw, I couldn't see any outside pockets. :)

How many pockets does your double busking bag have Graham? I like it as it matches the waistcoat I wear.

The pocket is where the red material & the balloon multi colour red join together. The bag is pushed inwards with the pocket curved out. It does state it on the description of the item but if anyone is unsure of anything that I sell on the site please just give me a ring to discuss about it, always happy to chat although sometimes I may need to rush off if I have a show or need to catch the post etc :D

Graeme, generaly there are 4 pockets all the way around the bag. I think we sold the one in the picture, will have to check. The bags are advertised as various colours because so far no two have been the same, they are all quite unique.

Isn't that a pic of the smaller of the two bags you do.  Does the larger one have outside pockets too?

I've just bought a Twist em Up Busking Bag and I am finding it fab.  I only bought the double as at the moment that is more than enough balloons to last me quite some time  ;) and I am using the velcro as I have not gotten round to sorting out my balloons well enough but that is the plan for today.

Jayne he Velcro bits do come out and you can use the bag without them or you certainly can with the double.  

Graham I have to admit that I went for the less colourful Twist em up because of the number of pockets mine has.  It has 2 rows with 3 on each row both sides of the bag so 6 pockets in total so I can separate my alien heads from my smiley faces and my hearts.  Not sure 4 pockets would be enough for me  ;)  although the option of colour was tempting  :)

Rainshoe,
The busking  bags come in single, double & triple and all have the outside pockets.

Hello Graham. Can you provide a link to the post about using plastic bags to wrap your balloon stock in your bag? Thanks in advance.

The search button on the forum is not too bad and sometimes takes you off at a tangent
and onto other discussions that are a good read as well.
