Michael Kors Jamesport

Thanks to my friend's husband who came home and surprised her with TWO Michael Kors bags, making me incredibly jealous, I decided I needed my own new bag. I drove all the way to the Tanger Outlets in Barstow (which is really only an hour and 15 minutes but in the desert so it feels like an eternity away) to go to the outlets where he bought her bags.

There were so many purses that I liked and it was pretty difficult to choose my favorite, but I finally did, a large Michael Kors Jamesport satchel in black. It's beautiful and I'm pretty obsessed with the bag.

There is a strap so I can wear it over my shoulder...


...and handles so I can carry it.

The best part? Since it was an outlet, the bag was already $40 off. On top of that they were having a sale for an additional 40% off. AND my amazing mom informed me that malls have coupon books so we picked one up and got another 20% off. So I got $40 + 60% off! After all was said and done I snatched a bag that retails for nearly $400 at a mere $170, which isn't much in the scheme of things.

My mom also got a bag!


The moral of the story, use coupons and ask if the coupons can be combined with other discounts!

I really love the one you bought, and I'm impressed with the deal! Good to hear about coupons and such; I'm not a great shopper when it comes to stuff like that, so I always appreciate tips from folks like you who are more knowledgeable about bargain shopping than I am. :)
