Superdrug customers have been left shocked after a shopper unveiled a clever way to strengthen the handles on the pink carrier bags.
The savvy Superdrug fan racked up over 50,000 views on the popular platform TikTok after sharing an explainer video.
Posting on the video platform, @maseyelizabethxx revealed she was "today year old" when she realised Superdrug carrier bags have a trick, reports Liverpool Echo.
The video, entitled "Who knew?", shows Masey opening a Superdrug carrier bag to make the inside of the handle visible, where there is a piece of clear plastic on each side.
She then peels off the plastic to seal the bag closed, showing off the now stronger handled bag.
Many were quick to share their disbelief that they’d never known the fact before, while others say Masey is doing it all wrong.
One person wrote: "Omg!! Never knew this."
Another added: "Never knew this and I’ve been working in Superdrug 10 years now."
Others said Masey had missed the true intention of the extra layer of plastic, insisting that it was not meant to be peeled off but rather was here just to reinforce the handle.
One person commented: "This isn’t correct, it's literally to make the bag stronger so it doesn’t break with heavy things in there."
While another added: "It's to reinforce the handles so they don’t stretch or break when there is stuff in."
Whichever is "correct" many agreed it was still a "good life hack" regardless.
