a worker screamed "I HAVE 4 BLACK NIKKIS!!!" people literally began pushing and yelling. as i tried to run out of the way, a girl literally tried to climb over me. INSANITY. then i saw that 2 girls both grabbed the last nikki at the same time. a war literally broke out. one girl was holding on to it w/ dear life, and the other girl said "i'm never letting go." although now it sounds pretty funny, it was really intense at the time!!!
i ended up w/ a kiss and makeup in night, and a violet matinee. yayyyyyyyyyy!

okay so, that was me holding on for dear life.....

I love this bag! Is the floral fabric of some kind, or leather? This could be the bag that sends your grandchildren to college!

omg, you think so? It's so rare, so once RM is as big as Hermes, maybe I will sell it for their college, lol.

It's fabric, like smooshy canvas or cotton. And the floral part is suede. it's such a find, it was at the bottom of the $100 bin. No one was looking through that bin, and a friend advised me to. best idea ever!

I was the girl "never letting go" and even though I was the last woman standing... I ended up getting a black matinee instead.

Saythis - I am sorry that things got outta hand

Do you love your new bags, Sarah? We have to hang out sometime soon

i literally choked at the bag slap comment! lol! Why have my bags been apple guarded and set out in display? already? we MUST hang!

also...i know i had a black Nikki Stare Down...but i didnt tell anyone they "deserved....." i would have finished the sentence! lol! No seriously when i grabbed a nikki there was another girl and i heard her say something but didnt hear it totally, then i let go because i realized it wasnt my HG anyway....

[rebby]

i couldn't go so my sweet boyfriend went for me
he was so sad that he couldn't snatch up a night nikki (i really wanted one!) but he knew everything else i wanted in every color, in the order i wanted, so he ended up getting me a dark grey MAM. I have heard it's shiny, but I am not a huge fan of shiny leather. Hopefully i'll like it!

was that us? i don't think so....I was wearing two brown bags tonight? ....i didnt say anything mean...it was more like a "you dont need it anyway" to MYSELF. i didnt realize i was even audible! yea, unfortch i talk to myself....out loud....at sample sales....so no hards...seriously! Sorry baglover if it was misconstrued and heard as an ancient voodo curse...it totally wasn't! I dont even know any! plus if i had said something it would have been a whole statement and probably somethig funny to break up the tension from the stare down. I saw in your EYE you were more serious than i was! lol!
l got my HG which was all i wanted and it was even better that it wasnt to any one elses detriment...that i know of! lol!

Sounds awesome! To me, that is what a sample sale is all about...samples! There is always a chance that the regular bags will go on sale somewhere for a similar (or even better) price, but no will will ever have that bag at any price. You're right, your friend had the best idea ever!
