I Achieved My Goal!

xanderbsb · Apr 8th, 2007, 12:57 AM

For a few months I've been really wanting a Chanel. I've been bugging my parents for one and I've also studied the different types of Chanel bags out there.

I went to Stanford Shopping Center to go to Neiman Marcus today with the intent of only browsing. I saw they had the bag I originally wanted which was the cotton club bowler but I tried it on and it didn't feel right on me.

Then I saw they had a black PST. (I had gone to NM's 2 weeks ago and the only PST's they had were pink and beige. I asked for black and the SA said there wasn't any.)

After looking and feeling out the black PST, it just felt so right to me so I pulled out the price tag and saw it was $1,095 which surprised me because from what I've read on here it's $1,150. Plus when I went to NM previously the SA told me it was $1,150 and there's rumors of it going up to $1,250. I asked the SA if it really was $1,095, so she scanned it and saw it was coming up as $1,150 but since it said $1,095 on the tag, she offered it to me for that price!

I couldn't wait any longer and after lots of driving back and forth to the mall, my mom bought it for me!

It feels so good to finally have something I've been wanting for a while and it feels good that I've earned it since this bag is my college graduation present and for being a Dean's scholar at school

I just had to share my joy.
