John Lewis

I was *this* close to buying the black mini Mabel about 2 hours ago. I've got a £50 John Lewis voucher so it would have brought the price down to £260 but I couldn't work out if I only wanted it because it was reduced 
And I'm not sure how much I'd use it. I'd really only use it for evenings and I don't go out that much at the moment.
They don't seem to be flying off the shelves so I'm going to think about it and see how I feel in a couple of days. It's really cute, though

Yes, I was suprised at how spacious it is inside, too
I think £225 is a far more palatable price 
I love how I'm thinking of it as costing £260, as if the £50 voucher isn't real money
The medium Mabel doesn't work for me; the straps are too short to go over my shoulder - I wouldn't want another arm bag for day time, but it would be too big for evening. I love the large Mabel and that one does fit over my shoulder but I wouldn't want the black as a girl at work has it
the red is really hard to come by and I don't think the large came in midnight, did it?Plus, I actually don't need (or want) another handbag at the moment. I'm sort of thinking of the mini Mabel as a clutch
But it sounds like I'd be able to get one cheaper than that, anyway. I'm going to Bicester in a few weeks so I should try to sit on my hands until then Just had a thought - I wonder if they've got any left... I might be able to get John Lewis to price match
John Lewis are "never knowingly undersold" and will price match any shop (although not an online shop) if you find an item cheaper within 7 days. I think the shop might need to be within a certain distance, though. So I need to find out that; then I need to see if Canopy still have them instock. And if they do, I guess I can go to John Lewis with Canopy's phone number and try to get the pricematch done then and there. If it was £225, with my £50 voucher, that would definitely be more attractive
Oh well, that's that plan down the drain
I think it was just an impulse anyway - probably just because of the chance to get a reduced Mulberry from a shop, rather than over the phone or t'internet
