For both, apparently. It's awful! SIXTY GRAND. How & why.

I normally think people can do what they want with their money etc but anyone who spends £60,000 on a hideous clutch bag needs to have a word with themselves.

It better come filled with crisps or that amount.

A never ending supply of crisps. Like the magic porridge pot.

Cheese and onion crisps too, I'd be so annoyed if the neverending supply was salt and vinegar.

I don't understand the saying "cheap at half the price". Surly of course it's cheaper at half the price????

I find this bag deeply offensive- especially given recent press about world poverty. Funny old world....

mcdog - I googled as it does sound wrong
"Cheap at half the price" is the original and correct version of the saying. In Middle English, cheap, or "cheep" also meant goods or property, so the street cry, "Cheap at half the price!", was the Middle Ages' equivalent of today's shop window sign, "All stock 50% off".

I thought I had better snap one up quickly before everyone else tried to buy it.

I've just made my own creation out of a cheese footballs' tin and a piece of string. I wonder if I could get a few thousand for it?

Speaking of food-fashion, this collection really did amuse me:

Blush I like it, I'd much prefer it in silver though.
