Awesome post!!!

PS: If you're broke and need a bag to carry your stuff around, there are plenty of places to get cheap yet good-looking and long-lasting bags. More than two years ago I ran into Target to get paper towels or something, when I saw a large black tote with a huge outer zip pocket and two tall side pockets (perfect for water bottles). I hit the brakes. I needed a new, practical, light-weight bag. After trying it on, I bought it for the astronomical price of $19.99. This bag is still in good condition, and, believe it or not, I get complements whenever I use it. I'm bringing this up because as bRs stated in her post, if you can't affort an expensive designer bag, there are options other than buying a fake designer bag--from mid-priced to low-priced bags. I was at Target again two days ago, this time for dog food. While I saw a lot of ugly bags, I also saw decent ones (not fakes but obviously copying styles we like--MJ, MK, etc) for $12.99 to $18.99, with some small hobos at $9.99. It will carry your stuff without breaking your wallet.
