Sounds good in theory, But reality is not that simple. We tried the one bag one price and it simply did not work. Guest will fill the bag till it burst, or over fill with apples on there chest under there arms ect. Then ask for another bag only after they have paid for the one bag. We even tried 3 different size bags that still did not work. After 3 years we went back too the lb. price.

They are popular in many stores now and cost about $1ea. We have had plastic and paper bags rip and tear in the orchard. We usually sell by the pound, but thought we could sell them a bag at a set price, and let them fill it up .
