I just scored a $900 Burberry purse at Costco for the grand total of

$200! Yup. You heard right. It was at Costco for $499 and I had my rebate coupon from last year.

Oh, and sniffa. Yes, I DO know how many homeless people that could feed. :eyes:

And, I didn't donate it to Lee Mercer because I already donated the maximum in non tax deductible dollars.


:woohoo:

1. Sorry, I'll stick with my Dooney & Burke purse I got on the clearance rack from TJ Maxx

:woohoo:

[Midlodemocrat]

3. Dude, I'm a total bag you know what.

It's the only thing I buy. I don't buy a ton of clothes, shoes, other things like that. I buy purses. Oh, and candles. Yup. That's me.

6. My purse collection includes 4 D&B wristlets (I love the wristlets) and a Dior Wristlet

When I go out socially I don't like alot of extra purse with me. I also found a great Michael Kors bags at TJMaxx.

My BJ has prada bags but they just didn't seem like something I'd like in my collection.

8. I love the Burberry pattern and have for years.

Most of my purses are Coach from the outlet or Vera Bradley, but when I saw this at Christmas I was dying. Then, Costco ran out of them, and obviously someone returned this one from Christmas, and I was there to snag it.

10. Right before Xmas the QVC outlet in DE had half price on all their D&B

Unfortunately I was tapped out by Xmas with the new house

:cry:

[Midlodemocrat]

11. There's a QVC outlet in DE? Holy crap. That would be worth

braving the tolls.

13. Unfortunately you have to pay in Maryland but I could get you thru DE without a cent

:D

4. Is it made from a kangaroo scrotum?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. No kangaroos were harmed in the making of my purse.

Naugahydes, well, that is a different story.

7. Hmm. I am curious. What makes it worth $200 let alone $900?

Just asking. Not saying anything about feeding homeless people, just wondering what could be so special as to make a purse worth that much?

[Midlodemocrat]

9. Nothing. LOL. It's just a designer scheme.

I have adored the pattern for years, but felt that spending that much was silly. For Christmas, I wanted to get the one at Costco, but they ran out, so voila. My rebate came last week and I happened to be there today where I snagged the last one.

And, the feeding homeless people is a joke. sniffa is always poking at me, but I do contribute a lot to food banks, etc. Second Harvest is my favorite.

[yellowcanine]

12. Well I doubt that most homeless people would find it that tasty anyway.

Is it leather? I suppose boiled long enough and with a little hot sauce it might not be too bad.
