Clipa2 functional purse and bag hanger

Hey, all! It’s Mary, one of Collin’s Sidekicks!

Did you know a woman’s purse is known to have more bacteria on it than the average toilet? 🤢 Gross! It might just be because we carry our purses everywhere and set them down on all sorts of dirty floors, on counters, in bathrooms, at grocery stores, in movie theaters, etc – without thinking twice about the creepy germs that went before us.

BRB – I’m gonna grab the Lysol wipes and Purell hand sanitizer. 

To be honest, I can go a little overboard when it comes to cleanliness in my home, but I rarely evaluate where I set down my purse or follow proper “purse-placing etiquette” (if there is such a thing 🤔). Until now. After a visit to a terribly dirty gas station restroom this summer without a clean spot to hang my purse, I decided to find a solution.

In walks the Clipa2 Instant Bag Hanger… I never realized that I needed something so much!


Here’s what I love about this clip!

Clipa hanger on purse

1. It can hold up to 30 pounds!

Yep, this little ring can hold up to THIRTY pounds! Plus, it’s very sturdy and easily clips onto my purse or bag handle – even backpacks and diaper bags! It also comes in six different colors and finishes, so it matches my style. I also like that it has soft grip pads on the closure, so it won’t scratch surfaces.


bathroom hook

2. It makes bathroom trips easier!

Especially when I’m traveling, at an airport, or whenever the restrooms are dirty and there are no hooks in site – and definitely when you have little hands to hold!

Plus, it’s so easy to use! I just clip it onto my purse, diaper bag, backpack, or bag and hang it on a door hinge, on the handicap rail, over the door, etc., while I’m in the restroom. When I’m done, I just pull the bag strap, and the clip falls from the door and back down onto my bag handle! Easy peasy!


Clip on grocery cart

3. It’s great for hanging on grocery carts!

I really could have used this clip when my kiddos were young and when the child seat was occupied by a car seat or toddler, leaving my purse to take up space in the back of the shopping cart.

This clip is awesome for those times when you don’t have anywhere to place your purse or diaper bag while shopping, especially with fully loaded cart OR a car seat and/or little helper in tow!


Clipa at Starbucks

4. It keeps my purse off dirty floors.

Ever since using this clip, I’m more aware of where my purse goes and doesn’t go. I try to avoid placing it on dirty floors at all costs. Now I can conveniently hang it on any table edge or chair (it even hangs on the back of the seat or cup holder at a movie theater), so it keeps my purse from touching the ground.


Clipa stocking holder

5. It can be used as a stocking holder!

This handy little clip can even be used as a stocking holder on the mantle! It has soft grip pads on the closure, so it won’t scratch the surface. Remember – it can even hold up to 30 pounds!


 Clipa2 Instant Bag Hanger

6. It makes a great gift!

These clips make great gift basket additions, stocking stuffers, party favors, and more – and they sell for under $16 each on Amazon. If you’re on the fence about them, check out some of the awesome reviews – there are a TON!

And, I love that they have a satisfaction guarantee! If you aren’t totally thrilled with your Clipa purchase on Amazon, you can return it within 30 days for a full refund of your purchase price. Or, if you prefer, exchange it for a different color. Love that!


Purse clip

7. It can be a new jewelry statement!

Yes, I can even wear this ring as a bracelet! Honestly, I am not a big bracelet wearer, so I likely won’t be wearing it that way, but hey – it would make a cute bangle, right? 😍

These are just a few reasons why I love this clip. I’m sure there are many other uses, too!

This is not a sponsored post and the company has no clue I’m raving about these versatile little rings. I just love simple products that make my life easier and wanted to share! If you’re looking to take a load off your shoulders, you may want to give this clip a try, too!

    Hi, do you have the polished gold color? It looks a little more shiny on amazon. I love this idea and it looks much nicer and more modern than some of the other “purse hangers” I’ve seen.

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Hi Tiffany, I have the Matte Gold but it looks like it’s currently not available. Bummer! The Matte Hematite and Silver are available though.

      • Tiffany

        Ok, thanks for letting me know. Happy New Year to you and the Hip2Save crew!

        • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

          Happy New Year to you too! 🎉

      • Annie

        Hi Many, do you get paid by Amazon for this post. Seems there is a reference code on the link you provided.

  2. Cheryl

    I always make a list beginning in January for good stocking stuffers or items for our saran wrap ball game we do each year at the holidays. This will be the first item on my 2019 list!

  3. Chicagomom

    Ha, looks interesting!! Thanks Mary and Happy New Year!!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Happy New Year to you too! 🥂

  4. Bilma

    Thank you

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      You’re most welcome Bilma! Happy New Year!

  5. Mrs BK

    This is definitely worth a look for me as I always seem to pick the bathroom stall without a hook for my purse or coat or bags, etc. Lol Thanks for the post!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      I feel your pain – that’s not fun!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Thanks for the heads up Steph! It does look similar!

  6. Ana

    I would never put my purse on a bathroom floor but I do tend to put it on the floor at restaurants which is probably not too much better 🙁 Hanging from the table is a really good idea.

  7. Gail

    Well I like the idea, it not the cost. I will think about it.

  8. Homeland Couponer

    I have to ask …how tall are you? I’m thinkin’ in order to reach the top of that door in the pic you’d have to be LOL!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Haha I’m only 5’6 but when I wear boots, maybe 5’7. That door was a standard size at a restaurant so it wasn’t too tall to reach. 😉

  9. Naomi

    I have this in polished gold. I love it!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Glad to hear that you love yours Naomi! 🙂

  10. Karin

    Cool idea but I just wear a backpack purse.

  11. Maria

    I have personally used Clipa’s for years (5+). They are still as functional and pretty as the day o purchased them! I’ve been eyeing the updated version simply because the older style is a bit heavier.

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Awesome! Glad to hear you love them too, Maria!

  12. Amyyyyyy

    It looks like a great product but i’m worried it would get in the way on the cart and on the end of the table? Is that ever a problem?

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      It doesn’t ever get in the way for me. You can always use it to hang on the back of your chair if you’re dining at a small table or hang it on the side of your grocery cart instead of the front handle. The Clipa Facebook page has a lot of neat ideas too. 🙂 Hope that helps!

      • Jodi P

        You’re making it easy for someone to take your purse or reach for your wallet while your back is turned.

        Use a carabiner shackle/hook……….keep it on the strap of your purse, and use it to hook and SECURE your purse to the seat area of the cart.

        If someone wants to walk off with your purse………..they’ll have to drag the entire shopping cart with them.

        • riss

          That’s a great idea! I’m sure we have one or two in the garage. Heading there now…

  13. TN

    Thank you for including that this was not a sponsored post. When I started reading it, I thought the product seemed great but was sure that it had to be a sponsored post, the way it gushed about the product. Glad to know those are actually your honest thoughts about the product. I need to get one. Thanks for the recommendation.

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      Yep – honest review! 🙂

  14. kerRI

    Ha ! Yes trying to balance ur bag on ur lap as u hover over a public toilet seat.. dont even think its possible to become an expert at that. This sounds like a mini life saver. Lol thanks

  15. Jenny

    Perfect timing. I just purchased the same purse you have and struggle where to put in when eating out. Thanks!

    • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

      No problem! 🙂 Hope you love your purse – and clip – as much as I love mine!

      • Lez

        What purse is this?

    • Lez

      Could you tell me what purse this is?

  16. Kerry

    Mary- I love your purse! Do you mind me asking what brand it is?

  17. Michelle

    Ha! I just use a metallic carabiner.

    • Jodi P

      So do I……MUCH better in that it latches your purse TO the shopping cart. If someone wants to take your purse, they’ll have to drag the entire cart with them LOL

      • Mary (Stellar Sidekick)

        Haha great idea! 😉

  18. animity

    This is why I always have a cross body purse. Especially with kids. But this looks like an awesome product! Great gift idea for my sisters and best friend!

  19. S

    You can also use the Mommy Clip for clipping things to your stroller. I got that for $8. Half price of this ring.

  20. Ann

    Hi Mary, do you get paid by Amazon for this ad? Why there is reference code on the link you provided?

    • Natalie

      If you read the disclaimer at the top of the post it does tell you it is an affiliate link. You can avoid using their affiliate link and just use the search bar in good ol’ Amazon if it is such a big deal for you.

  21. Ann

    Natalie, Thank you. This site is now doing more of kick back posts. Not sure how objective their opinions are.

  22. Sofia

    Totally out of topic but can anybody suggest a good balloon inflator? I thought I saw something posted here a few weeks back but I can’t seem to find it. I got 3 birthdays coming up and it would really help me out. Thank you in advance.

      • Sofia

        No, I was talking about electric balloon inflators to make decorations like balloon garlands easier.

        • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

          The only one I am finding is this Party Pump in this post. You can still get it, but it’s not on sale anymore.

  23. Mona

    Do you still get $10 reward from amazon?

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      Yes, Mona! This does qualify!

      • Mona

        Thank you so much!!! Excited
        You guys are awesome!!!

        • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

          You are so welcome!
