Trader Joe's Halloween canvas mini tote bags will be available in stores beginning Wednesday, Oct. 8.

Trader Joe's popular mini canvas tote bags are back, and this time with a spooky twist.

A company spokesperson confirmed to USA TODAY its newest round of mini canvas tote bags will be available in stores beginning Wednesday, Oct. 8. This time, the bags will be available in Halloween-themed colors, including black, orange, purple, and a multicolored option.

The bags will cost $2.99 each, Trader Joe's confirmed to USA TODAY. The last batch of bags was released in April and were available in Easter-themed pastel shades of blue, pink, purple, and green.

"If customers have any questions about product availability, they can ask any crew member in their neighborhood store," Trader Joe's said in an emailed statement to USA TODAY.

Trader Joe's mini canvas tote bags have gone viral

The beloved bags caused quite a stir in March 2024, when they became so popular that customers waited in lengthy lines to get their hands on them. Viral videos on TikTok showed frenzies and long lines at the stores, where employees were often forced to limit how many bags customers could purchase.

The "mini canvas tote bags certainly sold more quickly than we anticipated," Trader Joe's representative Nakia Rohde told USA TODAY in March 2024. "Before we had the opportunity to promote them in any way, customers across the country found them at their neighborhood Trader Joe’s."

The overwhelming hype led people to list the bags for as much as $500 on online marketplaces like Facebook and eBay. At the time, Trader Joe's made it clear that it was aware of the resellers, adding that it was "done without our approval or authorization and outside the controls of our quality-minded supply chain."

The company continued, "To be clear, we neither condone nor support the reselling of our products and do all we can to stop the practice."
