I was at one time buying Glad and then I tried another brand and it did all the same things Glad did for less. I switched to this other brand, but the only problem was I could not seem to find a scent that would help neutralize the odor from the trash can. Since we have no need to empty the can daily it can build up a scent quickly. So, a week ago I went to the store and stood in the isle for about 5 minutes looking at the many bags I could buy. The scents, the strength, etc. So many choices, so I finally broke down, spent the extra money on the Glad Odor Shield Bag. The description is not at all what I was expecting. Sure at first the Febreze scent is strong, but after a day the scent is gone. So, after 3 days whatever is in the trash we can smell. Mind you we have a stainless steel trash can with a lid that closes. Then when I took the first bag out, it ripped at the draw string. This has happened with each and every bag. I go to take the trash out and the bag rips. I end up picking trash up off the floor and then it means when it goes in my trash can outside that it allows for leaking. So much for the leak control, strength, scent, and odor control. It does not help at all. I was better off spending less on the other brand and never having to deal with a ripped bag. I'll just go back to buying that brand and buying a little trash scent bar which did a better job and is still cheaper than buying Glad.
