Help!Frustrated! Can't "re" find fold and go luggage

Seasoned travelers please help! I found an awesome fold up piece of luggage online, didn't buy it and now I CAN'T FIND IT AGAIN! It folded up to what looked to me like a flat 10x10 square and was made to take with you in your luggage and open it up for checked luggage on your return flight. I was under $30 dollars I believe and it got rave reviews. I remember one reviewer said that they had had it for five plus years, traveled to Europe frequently and used it for dirty clothes and always checked on their return flight. Sound familiar anyone...anyone...anyone?????

I think there are a million tote bags that would fit that description, something that can be folded up (or is very thin, like nylon, so you pack it in your luggage) with a zipper that you could use to pack stuff on a return flight. I own probably at least 3 of such things. I never paid that much money for them. I just buy something like that when I see something cheap on sale or in a dollar or travel store, etc.

They are not under 30 dollars, but I would look at the Longchamp pliage bag collection.

It was very small. It reminded me of the wind jackets that you can fold and zip up into the neck of the jacket. The reason that I was so interested was because the reviewer said it had held up being checked for years.

DebitNM, thanks for the link. Do you own that duffel? I wish the link gave the size when it was folded up

Since the height is 10" and the width is 12", I am guessing that 10x12 would be square measurement, the length would be a few inches, since the length is 20 extended open.

No, I don't have that one, have a similar one though.

This one??

I've had a Totes folding bag similar to this one for more than ten years. It's been checked a few times with no damage.

Maggie101 the one I have is made by Baggalini, and it folds up into a very small zippered pouch.
I've had it for 4 years now, always take it along.
I got mine in a Travel store but I'm sure they have a website.

Look at the Baggallinis on ebags.com. Their bag-in-a-pouch and
zip-out shopper styles comne in several sizes and might be what you want. They are not cheap but are very tough in my experience.
