These are the greatest totes ever and they are discontinued! They can easily accommodate a laptop plus books, your smaller handbag, whatever. They fold up to nothing and they are very light. Great for travel to take with you when you might make a few purchases. Flat they measure 18 x 12" but there is a 5" gusset at the bottom that allows you to carry anything that you might need. Folded they measure 7 by 4. The tote is water resistant and there is a small pocket on the inside. New/never used.
