That is not dumb, that is truth!!! We can speak truth - I will die if I do not get this bag today! That's another truth!I need to get that bag now, they may increase the prices tomorrow
I've been thinking about getting this bag for what feels like a year?! Should I get it? (It has not been a year, fyi.)
Do people commonly buy bags for special life events or for birthdays? I'm looking for justification right now...

It doesn't add to the count if it's an actual red bag and not a charm, even if it's barely larger than a charm, right? I just realized Coach released a teeny tiny Rogue 12 and I'm now planning a mall trip.
Forget the Ouija board. Whenever I wonder if I may have way too many bags I rely on the wisdom of one of my favorite board games.

See?
It’s totally larger than a charm! Plus, it has feet, loops for a crossbody strap, and (barely) fits my card case. Completely different.
I just scoured PF to see if anyone has already gotten one and wanted to see live shots. Thanks for the comparison shots. I'm planning to get one in same colour as well. Also waiting for them to release size 20 soon.
I told myself no more bags(2 bags ago), but this is just too beautiful!
It's just the cutest thing. I love how it stays true to the details of the larger-sized Rogues.I just scoured PF to see if anyone has already gotten one and wanted to see live shots.

Because I like this brand, this influencer, or this celebrity! Or worse, because I am thinking about a character or a story and I think this bag would be a perfect fit for that.
There's been a few dumb reasons throughout the years, so I'll list the particularly egregious ones:
- "I can't believe it's this cheap! Better get it before someone else does"
- "My friend gifted me a brown coat so I need a brown bag, but this one I literally just bought the day before doesn't vibe so let's get this one instead"
- "My grandma passed away so I must buy a bag that honors her style"
- and lastly, "Why not? That's what credit cards are for"

OK, this story is just chockful of legitimate reasoning. Don’t quite know how to enumerate it.
Hadn’t bought a bag in 4-5 yrs. Last one (or near to it) was a PS1 pouch in black. Just always loved it, even though I rarely carried smallish bags. It was, or was going to be discontinued, so I had to find one. I did, at less than half retail. I was so happy about getting one, but never used it until last Fall. Wanted to be hands-free, walking around, with 3 little ones and DS and DIL. It was cold, the pouch fit over my bulky down coat, easy to get into one-handed, etc. I’ve been using it ever since. I don’t have a need for large tote-size bags these days.
So, fast forward to a month ago, I decided I was bored with black all the time and I always wanted one in Saddle. Wonder how much they are now, and if I can still find one? Don’t see one in Saddle, but there is a beautiful burgundy one at a super good price on TRR, and I don’t have a bag in burgundy, (totally disregarding the Violet Prune Bal Small City, that still has tags on, still in the box.) I can wear burgundy with a lot of things I have.
Still Googling Saddle, I find a White Perforated Pouch, always loved that pouch. Gee, I could even use it in the winter with my white Sorel boots, and it’s such a good price.
Still keeping watch on a Saddle, I find a beautiful Watermelon Green. I’ve never had a green bag, (olive or khaki maybe, but never green,) and it’s such a good price. I don’t really have anything in green, I could wear it with black. I had to buy a Burberry scarf with some green it in, just in case I need something to tie it all together.
No saddle yet, but I couldn’t pass up a red-orange suede, little faded, little jean transfer, but in great condition. The bag was $65. I then spent over $100 on suede care/restoration/dye products. It looks great, I have a lot of red in my wardrobe, but it would be nice to have a scarf with a little red in it for the winter (another Burberry.)
Still no pouch in Saddle, but I did find a PS1 Tiny in Saddle. Not quite the pouch, but it’s close, and I like it, except for the color, when it arrived. It’s a dull cocoa brown, not what I expected. The latch is broken, but fixable, which I knew, and it was such a good price! Then I decided to get some Saphir color creme to perk up the color a bit.
So, a month later, I have 5 pouches (incl. the orig. black) and a tiny. My ultimate rationalization is: The 5 new bags (even with the suede/leather products) still ended up being less than 1 of them at retail. Not factoring in the scarves, they are a bonus.)
I closed my browser windows with ebay, FP, TRR, Posh. I think I’m done. Unless….nope, nope, nope.
Please, don’t anyone tag or PM me if you see a great deal on an exc. cond. PS1 Saddle Pouch.
