why are Coach Purses so darn expensive???

[Sadie's Mom]

I really like the wristlets. I don't think there is a Coach outlet near us, but I wish there was!!! I almost got a Coach knockoff when I was in Chinatown in NY a couple of years ago, but didn't...wish I had...there were some pretty good knockoffs there.

I must have missed it also ... any Coach bags I have were gifts,
and I wear sneakers ....
would have worn them under my wedding gown if I could have gotten away with it.
But my daughter has the bag and shoe gene in her .... so she has many Coach bags ... courtesy of "mom" ....

Is there a list somewhere of their outlet stores? I dont' think they're listed on their website.

I see you are in Texas, and I am sure there are some closer to you....but I do know there is a Coach Outlet in Round Rock (right outside of Austin) and another in San Marcus. It's always nice to take a trip to the Hill Country and maybe do a litte outlet shopping

That's kind of what I was thinking!!! I've never been down to San Marcos & have always wanted to go. Now if I could just find a money tree so I'd have some shopping money!

mom's like to buy their daughters things...it's their job . Plus, wristlets are priced more reasonably

LOL...she does enjoy it, but I always feel bad when she does for some reason. I have always hated for them to spend money on me. I was actually just thinking that if I could convince her to go with me, it would be company for the road trip & someone to convince ME not to spend too much money!

yea, I know what you mean. My parents like to buy me things (just little things--not coach bags) and I try to say no but then they get get offended, like they're no longer needed. I'm 32 and have a good job so I can buy things myself but I don't want them to feel badly so sometimes I give in.

You're lucky I don't live closer because I love road trips, especially where handbags are concerned and I'm NOT a very good influence, as you can see

LOL...yeah, I think I'd come home with a whole armload of purses if I was with you!!

My dad likes to do things like when I go home to visit (they're 3 hours away), he'll take and fill my car up with gas, or have my oil changed. THings that dads like to do. But if I ever try to do something nice for them, they insist on paying me back! Which I want to do stuff for them sometimes too!
