My main "going to see professional people" bag (the mini messenger from Namaste) has a zippered slot that I put the ziploc bag in. The ziplock has a day's worth of feminine hygiene supplies, handiwipes, napkins, a high-protein food bar, a small jar with as needed pills (benedryl, ibuprofen, vitamins, etc.), foil wrapped tea bag, water flavorant packet, an envelope with vending machine money, an emery board, a lotion sample....
It's got my urban survival supplies, no matter where I am, or what I need, that bag (the rest of the bag has pens and notepads and various folders of information) has it.
But, when I'm just going to knitting group, I don't usually remember to move the ziplock... and sort of don't want to because it needs to live where it lives. But I do want to have headache tabs when I'm going to be away from home for 3+ hours and it really sucks to go out and be social with people and not be able to write down their phone numbers if I manage to make friends.
So it seems like I could be good with something less than a gallon size ziplock, and I might prefer more privacy. But I want to take the effort to put one in each tote bag.
You are right that the folder thingy might have saved me from needing to buy a whole bag, but I love the bag, so it's not a loss.
