The bag closing apparatus includes a horizontal plate for supporting a coiled strip of bag closure tags, a channel having a width corresponding to the thickness of the bag closure tags and a height greater than the height of the bag closure tags. The channel terminates with an inclined surface such that the upper surface of the tag can be exposed with the entrance to the opening within the tag lying substantially flush with the inclined surface. When a bag to be closed is slid manually downward along the inclined surface, the crushed end of the bag enters the opening in the closure tag and is seated therein. The bag and the closure tag are then manually slid until the closure tag leaves the channel and is broken from the strip. In the process of clearing the first closure tag, engaged with a bag, from the channel, the next following closure tag is brought into position to receive the next bag to be closed.
