Devices for maintaining the mouth of a bag in an open condition. The device may comprise a housing with a cavity and at least one opening, and at least one support band which is at least partially positioned in the cavity, wherein a first end of the at least one support band is located in the cavity and at least a portion of the at least one support band extends exterior of the housing, and the at least one support band has at least two positions relative to the housing, a retracted condition in which a majority of the at least one support band is positioned in the cavity and an extended condition in which less than a majority of the at least one support band is located exterior to the cavity.

What is claimed is: 1. A device for maintaining the mouth of a bag in an open condition, said device comprising: a housing having: a cavity, at least one opening, and at least one support band, wherein a first end of said at least one support band is located in said cavity and at least a portion o
What is claimed is: 1. A device for maintaining the mouth of a bag in an open condition, said device comprising: a housing having: a cavity, at least one opening, and at least one support band, wherein a first end of said at least one support band is located in said cavity and at least a portion of said at least one support band extends exterior of said housing and a second end of said at least one support band is also connected to said housing, and said at least one support band has at least two positions relative to said housing, a retracted condition in which a majority of said at least one support band is positioned in said cavity and an extended condition in which less than a majority of said at least one support band is located exterior to said cavity. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein said at least one opening comprises a first opening on a first side of said housing and a second opening on an opposite side of said housing. 3. The device of claim 1, wherein said housing is at least partly comprised of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal, aluminum, steel, ceramic, and rubber. 4. The device of claim 1, further comprising a belt clip attached to said housing. 5. The device of claim 1, wherein said at least one support band has a cross-sectional shape selected from the group consisting of round, elliptical, and rectangular. 6. The device of claim 1, further comprising at least one spool in said internal cavity wherein said at least one support band is attached to said at least one spool. 7. The device of claim 6, wherein said at least one spool comprises a first spool and a second spool. 8. The device of claim 1, wherein said at least one support band is comprised of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, rubber, metal, aluminum, and ceramics. 9. A device for maintaining the mouth of a bag in an open condition, said device comprising: a housing, a first support band connected to said housing at a first support band first end, and a second support band connected to said housing at a second support band first end, wherein a length of said first support band external to said housing is variable, a length of said second support band external to said housing is variable, and a first support band second is detachably connectible with a second support band second end. 10. The device of claim 9, further comprising a cavity internal to said housing, a first spool and a second spool, wherein said first support band first end is attached to said first spool and said first spool is rotatably received by said housing in said cavity, said second support band first end is attached to said second spool and said second spool is rotatably received by said housing in said cavity, and rotating said first spool causes said first support band to be wound or unwound on said first spool and rotating said second spool causes said second support band to be wound or unwound on said second spool. 11. The device of claim 10, wherein said first spool and said second spool are biased to expel at least a portion of said first support band and said second support band, respectively. 12. The device of claim 10, wherein said first spool and said second spool are biased to retract at least a portion of said first support band and said second support band, respectively. 13. The device of claim 9, further comprising a first band lock which restricts movement of said first support band and a second band lock which restricts movement of said second support band. 14. A device for maintaining the mouth of a bag in an open condition, said device comprising: a housing having a cavity internal to said housing, a first spool located in said cavity, a second spool located in said cavity, a first support band attached to said first spool at a first support band first end with a first support band second end located outside said cavity, a second support band attached to said second spool at a second support band first end with a second support band second end located outside said cavity, wherein a length of said first support band exterior to said cavity is variable by rotating said first spool, and a length of said second support band exterior to said cavity is variable by rotating said second spool. 15. The device of claim 14, wherein said first spool and said second spool are biased to retract at least a portion of said first support band and second support band, respectively, into said cavity. 16. The device of claim 14, wherein said first spool and said second spool are biased to extract at least a portion of said first support band and second support band, respectively, out of said cavity. 17. The device of claim 14, further comprising a first band lock which restricts movement of said first support band and a second band lock which restricts movement of said second support band. 18. The device of claim 14, wherein at least one of said first support band and said second support band is comprised of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, rubber, metal, aluminum, and ceramics. 19. The device of claim 14, wherein said housing is at least partly comprised of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal, aluminum, steel, ceramic, and rubber. 20. The device of claim 14, wherein said at least one support band has a cross-sectional shape selected from the group consisting of round, elliptical, and rectangular.
