For the Love of Bags

This is the bag in question. I wrote about the Greenwich Leather Bag from Banana Republic a while ago. At the time, it was new and going at full price of about RM890 or something similar. The Banana Republic store in The Gardens only had it in Black when I decided to get it with an American Express 15% discount.

This very same bag is now going for a hefty 40% off at Banana Republic! I am so tempted to get it but it’ll be nuts to seeing as to how I already got myself a couple of new bags recently. But still… 40%!!! It brings this wonderful leather bag into an affordable price range. The leather is beautifully soft and supple and its roomy but not large.

Temptation… will someone please go and get it so I don’t see it again at BR?

Coach stores are having their semi-annual sale here in Kuala Lumpur. Discounts are up to 30% off on selected lines. This usually means older collections from say a year or two ago. If you are eyeing a bag from that time this would be a good time to get it.

A 30% discount puts it somewhere in the region of the price it would be if purchased retail in the USA so whilst its still not dirt cheap, its about as cheap as it’ll ever get here in Malaysia! Also, nothing beats instant gratification of walking out of the store with a new bag in your hot little hands

Enjoy shopping!
