I received a really nice cash gift for Christmas and also a very generous Coach Gift card and I have been carrying both of them around in my wallet since the holidays waiting to find just the right bag!
I have been watching the Coach sales at the boutiques and at the outlets and nothing had really grabbed me at a price that I was willing to pay. I already have a lot of bags so it really has to be something kind of special to steal my heart.
On Saturday I went to the local Coach boutique store and I spent my cash gift on a Disney Thumper Tote and Thumper bag charm and I'm really happy with those purchases, but I still hadn't found a special bag that would fill an open spot in my purse wardrobe (and at a deep discount) to buy with the gift card.
Thanks to @crazyforcoach09 I learned that the outlets are currently having a sale on boutique bags and that they were offering a tiered discount up to 25% additional off the already discounted price, depending on how much you spend. (For some reason I am no longer on the Coach outlet mailing list and I would have missed it if she hadn't shared the information.)
So yesterday I went to the Aurora IL outlet which is near my home, and they had some nice FP deletes, but nothing that caught my attention.
Today I stopped at the outlet near my job in Rosemont IL and I finally got lucky. I found a beautiful bag at a deep, deep discount and I don't have anything else like it in my closet. It used up my entire gift card and I also found a lovely FP Delete accessory at a bargain price!
Any guesses as to what I got? Here are a few teaser pics, any ideas?
