And now Dunnes Stores has dropped the perfect carrier bag for travelling.
The phone bag is now available online and in shops around the country.
And fashion fan Kym, who goes by @kym_bee on TikTok, showed off the new purchase to followers.
She said: “Look at this little bag that I got from Dunnes yesterday.
“You know it;s just for your phone, I have my passport, and just here, money, because I lose everything.
“Isn’t it lovely and handy, because I can just leave it on then for the whole few days so I don’t lose anything.”
The handy item features a long strap that goes over your shoulder for easy carrying.
And it’s made from lightweight material so you can keep it with you all day while exploring new places.
The bag also features multiple pockets, making it ideal for carrying all your items.
It has two separate pockets perfect for carrying cash, a phone, passport, or even digital camera.
And luckily for fans of the item, it comes in two neutral colours – black and cream.
Fashion bosses said the item is “perfect” for keeping your phone.
An official description of the item reads: “This bag features two spacious pockets that are perfect for keeping your phone, keys, cards, and other essentials within easy reach.
“The lightweight yet durable nylon construction ensures long-lasting use.”
And this isn’t the only new bag that Dunnes Stores have dropped recently.
The Soft Travel Bag recently hit shelves and would pair perfectly with the phone bag.
It’s ideally sized for flights as it’s carry on size and can fit in overhead lockers or under seats.
And it costs just €20, making the handy bag a complete bargain.
According to the retailer: “This gym bag features bow tie panels on each side that double as extra compartments, perfect for carrying your shoes or water bottle.
“The interior is lined with a silky satin material and features three additional pockets.”

THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
