That was a close one! When my kids were little, we went to one of those educational stores and while I was looking at something, my son picked up the child-safe scissors and cut a few holes in his shirt.

Child safe scissors are still scissors people! I never even bought one for my first born. When he was in preschool he was struggling trying to use it. Though having one wouldn't have helped him too much as he already had difficulty with fine motor skills. Because autistic kids can have fixation, if he fixated on using child safe scissors I can't imagine what number couch we would have right now. Lol!

The one day I don’t check my email or look at Neiman Marcus website the sale items go an extra 20% and I should have known because Bergdorf Goodman went 20% on sale items on Sunday but I went to Yoga this morning and then never checked and at lunch time I checked and saw the extra 20 off and the one item I wanted was sold out online, so I do what anyone else would do call the store, well they have it but they won’t price match online - are you kidding?? That is their policy, the store and online are two different entities- what is this 1999?

Thank you for letting be b***tch a little maybe I didn’t need that SLG item and NM is making sure of it!

I'm sorry. That's so frustrating.

Oops, I may have just bought 2 bags on ebay! It's so easy to fall off the island!

Yes, way too easy! I am being tempted every day at least 20 times. I have hundreds of likes in "my likes" and now that Posh updated to send private offers from the seller's it's driving me crazy! Before when the price dropped enough to be a steal I would share with my followers. And I have to hit decline and unlike the item to save myself from these private offers that have been sent to all the likers. So it's really not private at all.

My favorite travel purses are my pebbled Legacy drawstrings. They seem indestructible and are big enough to hold a water bottle and lots more. The last trip I carried my Bleecker woven hobo. I've also carried my Bal on trips when I want to impress. If I want more than one purse, I'll pack my chevron Sophia because it is nylon and won't get crushed in packing. I used to have a saffiano tote that I used on a very long trip because it is waterproof and doesn't show damage. It still looked brand new after months of use.

I love all your travel choices, particularly that scrumptious drawstring bag. It’s lovely! And I have a real soft spot for Sophia. Wish I had bought a nylon one, too.

I know this is not the right thread for this but I need to bvent! I just saw my personal picture of MY MERCER on eBay! It was the picture I posted here when I first received my hologram Mercer. I’ve heard people do this but what a shock to see someone using my picture! :annoyed:

Oh hell no! So sorry. People are too lazy to take their own pic! You can report the seller for using stolen photos.

Oh No, I am so sorry. We need to watermark our pics (I don’t but should). This sorta happened to me with the words I used for a listing (my exact words, for Pete’s sakes!!!).

In searching for used bags, I've noticed a lot of the newer ones have peeling edge/trim on the handles. Is there a way to prevent/fix that? I saw reviews with completely shredded handles where the edging came off, the color rubbed off, and it looks like loose stringy material hanging off, supposedly with a few months of use. If there's a way to keep or repair the edging if it starts coming apart, I want to be ready. Has this happened to any of yours? Thank you in advance!

I don't watch the Oscars so i obviously didn't post lol.

So wallet sale still pending, first person found it to small for their phone(which i get no biggie, TOTAL lack of communication however i do NOT) second person is making my head spin.. they want it but coming to look at has been a struggle...

Honestly, who knows if it'll sell....

However i do have a pending bag sale for this Saturday, fingers crossed this works lol.

I did mention before but that Cafe bag sold... sad. It's okay, i did worry it was to seasonal and i am picky like that. So back at the beginning i go. Stupid, dumb how i have actual funds to get something else from sales but cannot find what i truly want.

Believe part of my issue like i said before is this startup of clearing more excess out again makes me realize to think well on any further purchases, no settling, no this will do...

Tried looking at other brands as well but my knowledge past only a handful of brands is quite poor, and i worry about poor quality, i cannot do prestige brands at this time and the contemporary market has some real duds out there.

I'm sorry you missed out on that bag. You are wise not to settle, and I hope you have fun waiting for the perfect bag and clearing out what you don't need. You are right that cleaning out our stuff is an eye opener to be slow & selective with new things! I am so relieved to be starting a real bag ban. I'm cleaning out my closet this week, trying every single thing on if I still like it and donating the rest. It is a happy feeling to make room & leave it open for good things ahead! I love your attitude.
