TOTALLY OT ROFL!

How absolutely and utterly thrilled would you be to RENT a Chanel handbag for an entire week- count 'em SEVEN whole days!- for a mere $142.00???? I can't believe anybody would do that, but.....

I don't know. There's a cute little Kate Spade purse that I could see carrying to a formal "do". It's only $13 for a week.

I'd do THAT.

Well, I guess I could see that for a special occasion- maybe. I noticed a purse that my former employer carried- $1310 plus the matching wallet for $520. Now, being who I am, looking at her purse meant nothing to me. It looked like it could have cost $20 at WalMart- didn't seem all that special at all! I'm sure it's nicely made with expensive, quality materials and all that, but what the heck??? She couldn't *impress* me cuz I had nooooo idea what she'd spent on it- and I really didn't care, either. Now if she had spent that much money on a really nice Golden Retriever with a great personality and lovely coat.... well, then I'd be impressed! Or not. LOL I paid $10 for my beloved Missy girl- with AKC papers and all. And if I'd paid a thousand times that much for her it still would have been the best money I *ever* spent.

Yikes! I have a nice soft black real leather handbag with shoulder strap from K-Mart that I'm perfectly happy with. I got it on sale for $19.99 marked down from $29.99.

WOW!!! $142 and you have to give it back at the end of the week. Can't believe it. My purses are always clearance bags or one I've made and I use them for years.

How odd.

Wondered if it was my eyes so copied it into Paintshop Pro and magnified it - definitely £ sign!

Very strange.

They are being clever and putting the price in $ for people coming to their web site from an American/Canadian server and £ for people coming from the UK. They can tell what your IP address is and from that figure out the country.

Well, that's even worse! US folks can rent it for $142 but UK folks have to pay the equivalent of $ 279??? That's darn near double the price. I wonder if it's that "free" postage that makes it cost so much more? I don't like companies that play games with their pricing. Now I know for SURE I won't be renting a handbag from them. hmph! (and LOL)
