50 bags
50 printed tote bags
Fifty bags is a small run: enough for a team, a club or a small event. At this size the one-off screen charge is still a big part of the price, so the number of ink colours makes the biggest difference. The table shows live prices from 25 to 100 bags, so you can see what a few more or a few fewer would cost.
Live prices around 50 bags
Our lowest-priced bag, the Recycled Cotton Tote Bag, from 25 to 100. Compare the totals for 50 and 60: the extra ten bags cost far less than the first ten, because the screens are already paid for.

What 50 bags suits
Fifty is the size of a lot of real groups. We print runs like this for:
- A team or a committee. The staff of a small business, a group of volunteers, a PTA.
- A club. A running club, a choir, a book group, a walking group.
- A small event. A workshop, a supper club, the stallholders at a craft fair, a small wedding with one design for every guest.
- A shop's first run. Enough to see whether your customers like them before you order a few hundred.
For a wedding or a hen party, go for one shared design, such as the couple's names and the date, or everyone's names on one print. Screen printing puts the same print on every bag, so we can't add a different name to each one.
Keeping 50 bags good value
On 50 bags each screen is shared between fewer bags, so these choices count for more than they would on a big run.
- One colour, if your logo allows it. A second colour adds another screen, and on 50 bags you'll feel it on every one. The colour cost tool shows how much.
- One bag colour. 25 natural and 25 black means two print runs and two lots of screens. If you like both, compare the price of 50 in one colour first.
- Order a few spares. Someone always turns up late, and once the screens are made, spare bags only cost the bag and the print.
- Try a sample first if you're unsure about the bag. An unprinted sample costs very little and saves a surprise.
- Send a clean file. A vector PDF or a sharp PNG keeps the proof quick. We check every file for free.

Questions people ask
How much do 50 printed tote bags cost?
It depends on the bag and the number of colours. The table above shows live prices for 50 of our lowest-priced bag, with the screen charge included. On any bag page, type 50 into the quantity box to see its price.
Can I order 50 bags in two bag colours?
Yes. Add each bag colour to the basket as its own line, for example 25 natural and 25 black. Each is printed as its own run with its own screens, so it costs more than 50 in one colour.
Is a four-colour print worth it on 50 bags?
It can be, and some logos need it. But on 50 bags, four screens make a big difference to the price per bag. If your logo works in one or two colours, the saving is large. Ask us when you send your artwork.
How quickly can I get 50 printed bags?
Bags in the express range can be printed from the next working day. Everything else takes 7 to 10 working days from approved artwork. Every order then goes by DPD Next Day to UK mainland addresses.
Can I order fewer than 50?
Yes, there's no minimum. Printed bags with no minimum order shows what a very small run costs.
