Save your money and not buy green bags
The fruits and vegetables may look wonderful on the outside after nine days, but they are rotten inside. For instance, the picture of the bananas in the advertisements shows lovely yellow ones in the green bags and very ripened brown ones that are not in the green bags. In reality, the ones in the green bags, if they are as old as the ones that are not in the bags, are just as near rotten as the brown ones. I had the same experience with tomatoes and lettuce didn't seem to keep as long as if it was not in green bags. I gave my daughter in law and my mother in law some green bags and there experience was just as unpleasant.

I was skeptical, but they actually work, SORT OF
I purchased these bags the same day I bought some bananas, a "bunch" of 3, 9 days ago. Normally after a few days the uneaten bananas get thrown away, even though I only normally purchase a bunch of about 4 or 5. We just don't eat them fast enough. On a whim, I purchased a box, only because of my walking 7yo infomercial. Today she ate the 3rd banana, 9 days later. Granted, it was a bit softer than usual, but not a brown on it.
I had also put a red & a green bell pepper in another bag, which has been on my countertop for about 6 days. Not a wrinkle on them. We'll be cutting them up tonight, so if I have a negative comment to post, I'll be back.
Next I'm going to try strawberries, something else that normally rots away in my fridge.
So far, I don't regret my purchase and am glad that I didn't go with my thoughts of "no way, can't work".

EDIT 05/30/08: Strawberries: rotted/molded within a few days. Peppers: did prevent wrinklage, used peppers 6 days later, peppers in great shape. Tomatoes: same as peppers. Bananas: definitely prevented the browning by more than a week, but the banana was alot softer than I would expect.
If I could change my original 4 star rating, I'd bump it down to a 2.5.
To me, it's worth it just to extend the life of my bunches of bananas.

Save Your $!!
I regret having purchased this product. The Debbie Meyer Green Bags are flimsy, they are difficult to keep closed (even when I used spring-type clothespin, since twist ties are discouraged for use), and the 'large' size, which isn't much bigger than the small, was not large enough to accomodate a head of celery without cutting the celery. In addition, the instructions to keep produce 'dry' has a hidden meaning, because I discovered that every item developed water droplets, both inside and outside of the fridge. I needed to monitor the bags, and continually wipe out the insides with paper towels. Finally, the produce I bagged DID NOT remain fresh (Romaine lettuce, carrots, broccoli, red peppers, apples) but instead became limp and spoiled FASTER, probably due to the excessive moisture created by the bags. As a note, I rinsed out the bags in order to re-use them and noticed that the dark green color had faded. I surmise that the coating on the bag's inside, which is supposed to be 'key' in absorbing the produce's gas, rinsed away. This would make the bag entirely useless for any purpose. I'm going back to the comparably inexpensive, 2-gallon zipper-type bags on any grocer's shelf. Much sturdier, less costly, and definitely re-usable.
