I went to get my nails done after work and decided to look for a purse afterward. I found a cute animal print feaux leather bag but couldn't decide if I wanted the black/tan or black/pink. It was buy one and get one 1/2 price. So I decided on both bags.  I had been looking at 2 others but had decided against them and left them on the counter near the cash register.

I just unpacked my shopping bag in order to move my stuff into one of the bags and notice that the girl put both of the bags, plus one of the others into the shopping bag, and only charged me for the two.  Essentially I got 3 purses for the price of $32.00.

I have to go back to the mall again next week on Saturday so I'll take the 3rd bag back and explain what happened.  It is a nice bag though!

I never got into purses.  I just do a wallet and keep a grocery bag in car with paper towels/plastic for traps/cleaner and what not.  I think my aversion was created by my mom.  She has the heaviest pocketbook ever.  It has made chairs flip over!!!  Black and whites cool!:)

They're nice and roomy. I wouldn't have been able to choose between the colors, either.

My purse is huge and heavy, because I have all my school stuff in it plus e-cigarette supplies.

Those are CUTE! You deserve to treat yourself.

I'm not into handbags.  I usually buy mine at Goodwill (often new, with tags!). I scored a brand-new Aigner bag last year for $6.97.  It's one of those tiny, cloth, with the logo woven into the cloth bags.  I've bought cheap bags from Wal-Mart years ago, which are still hoing strong. I've had brand-new designer bags and wallets that fell apart within 2 weeks. Go figure.  I don't carry much in mine; I don't know if that weight is good for my shoulder!

Not into handbags either. Shoes, though, are another story. I use my briefcase for work and I have a hobo-type purse in brown leather. That's pretty much it.

I LOVE purses! I used to hate it, and was that just a wallet girl.. but since I started working at Macy's in the Coach department.. I fell in love with bags. Thanks to late returns on these bags, I got several Coach bags for under $20 (regularly priced  $200-300!)

I have too many designer bags to count.

Natalie, I love the ones you got!

I'm not into shoes. Never really was.  I think the most dress type shoes I ever owned at one time were 3 or 4 pair, plus a pair of sneakers and a pair of winter boots, and rain boots.  I can't wear shoes with any type of heel anymore, so I have 1 pair of sneakers, plus a spare pair in the closet, and this year I bought 2 pair of sandals, and 3 pair of cheap flats at Walmart.  However, I find that anything but sneakers cause me to have back pain.

I absolutely love bags and wallets.

I love purses too, but I refuse to spend big bucks on them because I typically only carry them one season and then it's gone to the back of the closet. I've been looking for a summer bag for quite a while this year but have had the hardest time finding one I like and am willing to pay the asking price for. They are all so BIG and cavernous....I carry my wallet, my eye glass case, work badge and keys, lipgloss and medicine. I don't need all that space, I end up filling it with receipts and junk and can never find my phone or my keys in it.

My grandma is the same way and always has cute but small bags. I'll ask her where she shops.

I have a lovely red leather Nine West purse that's pretty small for me and has lasted several years.
