Bargain Shopping: Cheap & Chic Handbags on a Budget

Bargain Shopping: Cheap & Chic Handbags on a BudgetLets face it, we live in a world where a plastic purse can cost you over $1000.00 depending on the designer, and the average prices for a decent handbag rise every year. I own so many handbags until most of the time I forget I have them. I look in closet and its falls off the shelf or I’m looking for something else and I look in the duster and say “damn baby I forgot about you” and then I make it a point to carry it at some point. I’m a bargain shopper but I will admit that 99% of the purses I own cost me over $100.00 and some I won’t even disclose the amount I paid for them. Even though the outlets are cheaper, there prices can still be quite expensive. Every once in awhile I end up in the right place at the right time and I luck up on a deal. The bag pictured below is the Coach Poppy Applique Glam Tote, I found this bag at the Coach outlet on clearance for $89.00. The bag was sitting in an odd location when my mother grabbed it and said “this look like you” needless to say she was 100% right and when the clerk checked the price for me and told me it was $88 dollars and some change, I nearly passed out in the middle of Coach.

This year for Christmas, my sister asked me for an inexpensive metallic bag that was less than $100.00. I immediately told her that I honestly didn’t know where to shop for inexpensive purses and her response to me was “you’ll figure it out”. So I challenged myself to find 10 bags under or slightly over a $100.00 that I would carry and this is what I found. You can actually have some money left to put inside your new bag with these bargain busters.
