As a female and a pretty avid coach lover, I often find myself talking about my love of coach purses to other people, even sometimes when they don't want to really listen. We all have those kind of people around and really, they don't have to love coach quite as much as we do. However, I wanted to hear if anyone has actually "converted" someone who didn't like coach or wasn't interested into a Coachie fan! I have a cute, quick story and then I want to here from you!!
I work at a hardware store with several other girls and guys as a cashier. We have some slow times during the day and we usually start talking. One of the girls loves purses and coach about as much as I do and we usually start gabbing about styles/colors/accessories, you name it! We will even comment on cute purses people carry in the store. Well, this girl obviously doesn't need converting-it's our manager that does. She also works up front with us and rolls her eyes and makes jokingly snide comments about why would anyone love a purse that much and has been doing so for most of the summer. She also comments on our talk to other employees. As a side note, she doesn't really care for purses or "girlie" things (which is fine, it's her). She told me she has carried the same purse for more than 7 years! Well, some of you know I have been hitting the jackpot with finds at Goodwill and have been telling people about those at work. Out of the blue yesterday she commented, "Oh, I wouldn't mind having one of those cute coach purses you carry." I was shocked. No one else in the store could believe she wanted a purse either. Anyway, I found just the purse for her, a cute hamptons weekend tote in white and yellow that suited her laidback personality. She was so excited to have a coach purse she came on her day off to get it. I don't know if she is really going to be a avid coach fan but hey, you never know. If she does go on to catch the fever, I will have given it to her.
A true measure of success for a coachie is the passing of the obsession on to someone else.
Anyway, I want to hear everyone's stories if you have one!
