I love my new tote bag. It’s spacious, will carry a lot, and has rummaging around room.
There is one problem for me, however. Everything goes to the bottom of the bag, so I rummage, and rummage, taking a lot of time before finding tukwhat I was looking for.
We have come up with a couple of good ideas that will make this a terrific bag for me. (A carry bag is essential here. You have to carry whatever you buy, whether you’re walking, catching a tuk tuk, calling a Grab, riding a motorcyle or whatever, unless you want to pay for delivery.) Everyone carries a bag, both men and women, young and old.

Brian came up with ordering a clip to attach my keys easily to one of the straps. I need the very best access to these, both for using the building elevators as well as getting into my condo.
Then we thought of trying to find a smaller bag that we could attach INSIDE the big tote, putting more important things, or often needed items in the smaller zippered bag.

We stopped at a wonderful small shop on the way home from my hearing aid appointment. We found just what we needed. I’m going to go back to the shop because they had many wonderful, colorful things, like a handmade decorative jacket I was drooling over. 😁

When we found the zippered bag, Brian insisted we get 2 of them, one for each side of the tote. Now I should be able to find things more easily and they should be secure in the zippered inner bags, with heavier things at the bottom. And when we get the clip Brian ordered, it will be PERFECT!
I gave the shop a good review on Google, hoping to send more business their way, and I plan to go back to the shop soon.
Brilliant solutions! Love the bag.

Thanks, Sheila. I love it, too. Now I can have the heavy stuff, like the water bottle and the umbrella, at the bottom, and the more reached-for things in one of the bags at the top. 😋

Perfect your mind. You are so smart 😀. You should be able to find things more easily and they should be secure in the zippered inner bags, with heavier things at the bottom. Very good Idea for your key attached to clip.
