Well, we finally used our outlet coupon (this was the tiered one ... 25% off if purchase of 200).

Daughter took some pics of the delet walls and clearance wall, just to show what's out there now. I saw scouts, yellow dakotah, tatum totes in different sizes (including whiplash with feather), circle hobos in white and grey, rhyders in multiple sizes in bronze(?), python, black, gold (?) .... most of these bags were never on my radar, so I might be messing up some names. Drawstring bags and totes with those crossed leather straps with mini-turnlocks. Clearance had white boroughs, mini-stud hobos, one of those "embossed woven pattern" basket clutches.

A lot of nice bags, but honestly none that are my speed. Most of the rhyders are just too big for my needs ... "too much bag for me". Totes, I rarely use. And those tatum totes ... nice bags and nice leather, but again, wayyyy too much bag for me. The only bag I really did consider was the grey circle hobo ... lovely color, nice leather, reminded me of a nice, old school Kristin. But geez, my stuff would drown in there. :laugh:

I did get a few things though, and I'll put them in a separate post.

And thennnnnn ...... well, I let daughter sign up on tpf some time ago, so that she could more easily look through the boards. And now she is finally using her account --- so I will let *her* show you for herself, what she got. ;) She's not the little girl in my avatar anymore. She's third-degree black belt in kung fu now, honors student in middle school, helper-teacher at the kung fu, and junior leader at a local weekly bible-school program. Yes, mom and dad are quite pleased. :)

So here are the pics daughter took.

As for what I got ...

Metallic cherry mini Cora, green mini-skinny (delete), and a double corner zip black wristlet. With daughter's item as well, we did reach the 25% off, so the mini-Cora was only 74, and the mini-skinny a whopping 15.

The mini Cora ..... well I already had the apricot/chalk one, and to be completely honest it's easier to use than my Epi Electric Alma BB. Don't get me wrong, I love my Alma BB for the "snazziness". But quite honestly, my apricot/chalk mini Cora is more cooperative about letting me get things in and out. And considering that burgundy is my favorite color (my wedding was burgundy and white), of course I would get this one. (Plus, I admit it, I'm partial to the name Cora. We had a beloved Maximillian Pionus parrot for fifteen wonderful years, losing her only after years and years of fighting her auto-immune disease. She was mommy's little girl, and her name was Corazon -- "Cora" for short.)
(Oh, and I did add an extra, gold hangtag to this cherry Cora. That did not come with it.)

The mini-skinny .... you can never have too many mini-skinnies. Way too useful for organization.

And the double zip ... that one's MFF too, but as I was going through a small stack of them, showing hubby how much the leather was varying from one to the other ..... oh dear Lord, I found one with the softest, smoothest, just velvety soft leather. The logo embossing was crisp and even, and oh my, the leather on that one. I had to get it.

And thennnn, I'll let daughter reveal her *own* little prize. ;) She's sitting across the room from me, chomping at the bit for her turn. ;)
