20230399145 · 2023-12-14 ·

A roll or set of waste bags is configured with a design-changing scheme that alerts a user about the number or approximate number of bags remaining in their set of waste bags. The design-changing scheme may utilize colors that alert the user that the specific waste bag roll is almost depleted. For example, using colors that differ from the remaining bags, such as green, orange, yellow, and/or red, can indicate to the user that they should either order more waste bags or refill their waste bag holder. In other implementations, a progressive color-changing scheme may be put in place, such that the first or second bag in the roll start showing a partial red portion to indicate to the user approximately how many bags they have left. The amount of red, or other colors, on the bag, may grow incrementally up to the last bag in the set.

Storage bag with features to facilitate sealing and unsealing of the bag

A storage bag includes first and second side surfaces that form an interior of the bag with an opening to the interior.
