July 5.... anyone snag any handbag treasures this week?

I bought 2 Alto handbags on the Dooney site.... they were on sale
and then had the additional 30% off.

And then, I went to ILD and found more handbags I wanted,
but clearly did not need. After trimming my cart, I bought
2 pebbled leather satchels and 1 Plumeria coated canvas.

Lots of price creep these days so the sales don't take the prices
down as low as in the past. These days it's all about the expectation
of what a good deal is.... discount off and ever increasing list price
still results in paying more.

I was surprised that there were not real treasures (price wise)
on ILD/ebay over the last 2 days.

I hope you will share your new acquisitions with us. I will try to live vicariously through you. I didn’t get anything. I’m trying to be good.
 
I caved and bought a pebble drawstring in white at $136 and a fuchsia Saffiano Geena for $101. Agonized over the polka dot Geena or Brenna but I think I would find it difficult to wear a dot pattern, much like the Chevron. Did not need either one but I loved the handle and leather edge on the bottom of the drawstring and I found the fuchsia to be a fun color and a bag I can wear fearlessly in the rain.
