Bags, bags, bags...

So my friend Meagan told me last week about a special place in Greensboro, I guess, that was having a MEGA sale on cutesy little bags! I am a sucker for things with polka dots, stripes, monograms, etc... so I just knew I had to go there! It's called Creative Containers and it's a wholesale business that has a sale once or twice a year to get rid of additional or over stock product.

I pull up to said store and seriously couldn't believe my eyes... cars lined the street outside of this teeny tiny store. I knew it was going to be a madhouse, but I never expected to see tons and tons of women with tons and tons of bags drapped over their arms. I wanted to say, "look ladies, there are plenty of cutesy bags in here for us all", but no, they weren't having it. Most of them were polite when I said "excuse me" to get to another aisle, but some of them looked like they were going to jump me if I happened to pick up the pink + zebra bag with the "M" on it... if you know me you know I can't stand animal print. It was quite a crazy experience, I must say!

I ended up walking out of the store with only a few items, but I'm glad I went. There were TONS of cute things and they were all super cheap. I wanted to call all of my pregnant friends and say, "get out here while you can", but the sale ends today. I think they do another one in the Fall, I'll keep you posted. I wanted to buy all the cute baby bags, and art work for baby's room, and baby this and baby that... *sigh*....

  1. What was the average price? I might want to look into the fall sale - you will have to show me the bags one day. Better yet, post them for all of us to see;)
