How much have you ever spent on a purse?

ETA: oops that should have been $249

WasNotWas · November 2013

I got a vintage Chanel bag at a consignment shop for $350!

Eleventy11 · November 2013

I have a Louis Vuitton I use as a diaper bag...it was a little over $1000. It took me years, Mother's Day and a bonus to be able to justify the money. It is an awesome bag though.

ILoveBoys · November 2013

Like $25/30 and I had a gift card lol

ReeseFox · November 2013

The most expensive purse I've every purchased was $60 on eBay. I bought it 6 years ago, and I still carry it everyday.

colliebabe · November 2013

I have a friend who is a manager at Michael Kors and gets a pretty good discount. So the value of the bags are more than what I've actually spent.

msdrdg · November 2013

I think the most I've very paid was $25.

I am cheap and don't care what others think of my purse. Does it hold my stuff? Yes, good.

JackoftheBox · November 2013

I have a coach diaper bag and hand bag. My friends said I would regret the diaper bag, but I absolutely do not. I love it!!

MrsT0514 · November 2013

Yeah...I think the most I've ever spent on a purse is like $60. I just can't bring myself to spend that much on a purse that I'll probably beat the crap out of.

I get hand me down coachs from MIL. She gets a new purse every few months, so she gives me her old ones. I haven't bought a purse in years.

There are two girls at my work obsessed with getting new coach bags. In the past year I have acquired a crossbody and a tote from them. Both coach in mint condition.

jorkz821 · November 2013

I have a Matt&Nat duffel type bag that I bought for work like 6 or 7 years ago that was around 200. It still looks awesome today even with daily use. I also got a coach outlet score for $120 that's leather and doesn't look like a coach purse. Love it. If I was loaded is want a Hermes bag. But alas I am not.

I just received a new purse last weekend. We went to the outlet, she bought a new purse, emptied out the old one, and gave it to me on the spot. It's only a few months old!

Here, for the judgers: I have purses from Fendi, Prada, Furla, Kate Spade and Modalu (the Pippa Middleton bag) in my collection.

Same for me. I can't fathom spending more than that. My current purse was $3 from goodwill!

angelashly · November 2013

I've purchased probably 30. I love Coach though and have a few, but they were gifts.

Same! Well, I think mine was 3.50.

I also haven't carried a purse in months.

@RondackHiker

What do you carry?

scoutkate · November 2013

Handbags are something I've always asked for as gifts. I can't even remember the last time I bought one myself. I guess the most expensive one I own is a Tory Burch that I think retails at around $425.

SpaceGirlSpiff · November 2013

I have never spent more than $50 on a purse... and that's usually if I have gift cards or something. Money out of pocket, probably never more than $20

I just ...cant. I don't care about bags or shoes. Flip flops work fine for me :P And if I need nice shoes, they're inexpensive and on sale preferably, and on a strict as-needed basis.

But I'm not going to judge or care about what others decide to spend their money on, as long as it isnt instead of feeding their children.

NotSharknado · November 2013

Can I just say that I don't usually spend $200+ on a handbag. I've been carrying around a $30 purse from NY&Co. for about 6 years. I just feel like I deserve to have one nice bag and if I'm not breaking the bank for it, then why not?

shadypines · November 2013

Also, now I buy most of my purses from Kohl's.

[Deleted User] · November 2013

I have a Coach bag that is my work bag. I've been carrying it for 3 years and it still looks brand new.

I have a smaller Coach purse that I've had for probably 9 years, but it was at the outlet and on sale and I didn't pay that much. Also still looks brand new.

I don't even love Coach that much, but I like their quality.

ReeseFox · November 2013

MIL gave me a Coach purse for Christmas last year, but I hate it. Maybe I can sell it.

SS: I have never bought a purse.

Ok!

pghmortdoll · November 2013

I have probably only spent about $80-$100. I have had them given to me as Christmas or birthday gifts and they probably cost upwards of $250.

I really want a new Coach or MK bag, but now that I have DS I rarely spend any money on myself. I would rather spend it on him or put it toward something more "responsible".

If my Christmas bonus from work is really good, I may get myself a little treat. (Definitely from the outlet.)

thebanich · November 2013

I buy my purses at Target for the most part so I rarely spend more than $30. The only expensive bag I own was a Coach purse that my aunt gave me when I graduated from college. I never carry it.

Spapeggy · November 2013

Most expensive was 150. For my 5 year wedding anniversary. I am so cheap but my husband begged me to get something nice I would use. He loves expensive toys and hates we never spend on me. I will not but another that high. I love it and am ready for dd to not need a diaper bag so I can use it again:) it's a coach

klondikebar · November 2013

DH talked me into getting a really expensive purse. Purses aren't my thing. I gave it to my best friend. I'm happy with a purse on sale for $50.

theseaword · November 2013

I have a Burberry that cost maybe 650? It was pre kids. We used to have nice things. This is my only nice purse though. All my others are cheapies.

What do you carry?

I have a super slim wallet with my ID, debit card, credit card, and health insurance card. I carry that and my car keys (single car key and single house key on a plain ring) in my pants pockets.

I hate carrying shit. I keep a brush and lip gloss and deodorant in my car.

LadyXaverian · November 2013

I spent $150 on a bag at the Coach outlet about 5 years ago. Other than that, my purses are in the $20-30 range from Target or JCP. I'll eventually splurge on a nice one again, but to me 150 is a splurge for a purse. There's no way I could afford or justify 300-1000 for one, but I can't promise that I wouldn't do it if I had it to spend. And I'd never turn one away if it was a gift.
