Premium Bag FAQs

Why should I buy a premium bag? Premium bags allow shoppers to get a bag regardless of the day they plan to shop during the 10-day Bring A Friend event. Premium bags can be picked up daily between November 1-11. They are not the same style bag as the Free Bag Giveaway bags. Premium bags include more swag and gifts then the Free Bag Giveaway bags.

What is the difference between the two bags? The Premium Bag includes additional swag and gifts that don't get included in the Free Bag Giveaway. One of the 1000 Free Bag Giveaway bags has a $500 Settlers Green Gift Card hidden in it; Ten of the 1000 bags have a $50 Settlers Green Gift Card hidden in them.

What is the same about the two bags? Both the premium and free bags come with a Settlers Green Coupon Book.
