Congrats!
I don’t think the missing hang tag would bother me on the kisslock pouch. A bag missing a tag would annoy me but with the pouch I think I’d be reminded of my retirement every time I looked at the tags! Lol. I vote to keep it

The kisslock is cutie and you got a great deal! I wouldn’t worry about the hangtag.
Very nice! What a great way to treat yourself! Love the flowers too!
That Dreamer is to die for!And such a steal for $250. Truly beautiful bag.
Congrats on adding all of these beauties to your collection and of course, congrats on retirement!
Happy Birthday and Happy Retirement!!!
The Dreamer and Kisslock coin purse are lovely presents to yourself.. Love the bag straps too!!
Congrats and enjoy!!

Happy Birthday & retirement! Your sweet kisslock pouch and Dreamer are beautiful! Enjoy! You might find a matching hangtag on the preloved market. Those heavy hangtags fall off sometimes anyway.

Thanks for all the well-wishes and kind words, it is an exciting (and a bit scary) change in my life but I am looking forward to enjoying it!
I think I will keep the kisslock coin purse, as an avid rehabber I am used to replacing missing hangtags and it usually doesn't bother me. It's just when the hangtag is "special" like the 1941 tag that I kind of wish that it had the original - but that hangtag sure isn't worth paying an extra $90 or $100 for an intact item!
Many of the bags at the Outlet yesterday were more suited for fall and winter - with colors like oxblood, olive, and other darker colors. That's fine, it's the reason they were deleted and on sale, but I really liked that the Ivory Wave Dreamer 36 will be a good bag for spring and summer - and I am planning to carry it on Easter!
I love the flowers too! Daffodils are my birth flower but it has been too cold here in the Midwest for the spring flowers to start blooming. At the grocery store this weekend they had "Daffodils - 10 stems for $2.50" so I bought 2 bunches of them. They were tightly closed when I bought them but they've opened up beautifully. I love the touch of Spring they bring to this chilly weather and I think they look great with my new goodies!

Congratulations on your retirement and Happy Birthday! You got some lovely items! I also got one of the 1941 kisslocks, mine is the solid lighter pink color (the name escapes me, might be Blossom?) I put Colonil on it and use it in most of all my larger bags and it has stayed in like new condition.
Good to know, I am not familiar with Colonil, which product did you use?

I used Carbon Pro. It's similar to Apple Guard but I find works more effectively.
We have daffodils in our yard. They've been blooming for a few weeks. I think they are just about done.
I have even more reasons to celebrate because I got some price adjustments and now I am even happier about my recent Outlet purchases.
I have been monitoring the Outlet prices ever since my shopping trip on Monday, and when I heard that the discount on FP Deletes had increased from 60% to 70% I headed back to the Outlet in Aurora, IL. today.
The FP deletes are now 70% off and everything in Clearance is an extra 20% off, and wallets are also an extra 20% off.
They had Dumbo and Dalmatian charms and some Disney Scarfs. I was very tempted by a Thumper wallet that was only $45 but I passed.
I returned the 2 novelty straps that I had bought on Monday, because they are just too long on me. I got a price adjustment on my lovely Ivory Wave Dreamer 36 (69656) and it dropped from $250 to $208.50 and it had retailed for $695!
My Chalk Ivory Floral Print Kisslock Coin Purse (79629) dropped from $60 to $45 after the price adjustment; it had retailed for $150. I feel better about the missing hangtag now because I got it at such a great price!

The (long and boring, sorry!) saga of the missing 1941 Hangtag on my Flower Print Kisslock Coin Purse 79629 B4 PLF is finally over and with the perfect conclusion.
I decided to give it one more try and I called the other Coach Outlet in my area, the store in Rosemont, IL near ORD. I usually have better luck at the Aurora store but I figured it was worth a shot.
To my delight they had several of these little kisslock coin purses in stock and they all had their original hangtags! I asked them to hold one for me and I returned the injured bag and got a brand, new, pristine coin purse with the appropriate hangtag for 70% off ($45, retailed at $150). So now I am even more pleased with my little purchase! And the Daffodils are still looking pretty good!
