For the most part, bags do a bang-up job of holding several items, especially for shopaholics. However, for those who like to shop in bundles, the 'Baglaboration' by Chip Chop! and Jane is the biggest on the market.

Shopaholics may ask, "What is the Baglaboration?" As its epic name suggests, this is a [gigantic tote bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neighborhood-and-ll-bean) -- and I do mean gigantic. At 1.25m x 1.55m, you'd actually have to drag this around like Santa on Christmas Eve. The front of the bag boasts a quirky message that innocently asks, "Does my bag look this big?" The tote is also impressively [handmade to order](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croissant-bag), so kudos to those who are behind this unique design.

The next time shoppers feel like buying a ton of items that [regular shopping bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trader-joes-totes) can't handle, call upon the Baglaboration, and shop until your heart's content.
