To be annoyed I didn't get an Anya Hindmarsh bag?

Or more specifically to be annoyed at the people who did?

I always do my weekly Sainsburys shop on a Tuesday or Wednesday morning, shop is always pretty empty. I live on North Coast of N Ireland, not exactly fashion/latest trends hotspot, so I assumed very few people up here would know about it, and arrived at the shop at 8.

I didn't get one, because some people had been outside the shop since 1 this morning! Most arrived around 6, and had I been there 10/15 minutes earlier I probably would have been one of the last to get one, as only a couple of people in front of me didn't get one.

What made me really annoyed was the women who had got them talking openly about selling them on ebay, and the fact that some of them don't even normally shop in Sainsburys (according to staff, who said they recognised about half of the people who got them).

Sorry for the rant, I think I probably am being unreasonable to be annoyed, but it doesn't seem fair! I wanted one to use it, I always shop there!

its a bag who cares?

they sell reuseable bags in aldi, get one of those

ScottishThistle · 25/04/2007 10:13

They're not nice & they're as cheap as peas so you'll pass one on every street!

KathyMCMLXXII · 25/04/2007 10:14

I thought these bags would just look so uncool because what they really say is, 'I am only using this rather than a plastic bag because it's trendy'.

TeeCee · 25/04/2007 10:15

It's a fucking bag. An ugly one. W T flyig F???
World's gone mad.

Enid · 25/04/2007 10:17

twobabies they are tiny

too small for a changing bag

go to Topshop and get a cloth one for £7

(thats what I did for the first ferw months with dd3)

oliveoil · 25/04/2007 10:18

hey folks

don't forget, the next Emperor's New Clothes installment is when Kate Moss does her stuff for Topshop

I predict queues and riots a la Primark

IT'S STILL A HIGH STREET STORE YOU WEIRDOS

kittylette · 25/04/2007 10:23

plus they look like ugly old sailor bags

Enid · 25/04/2007 10:23

god yes

I really like the military style jacket though

DrNortherner · 25/04/2007 10:24

Kate Moss range is a bit grim imo. Does it include 20 silk cut and rope for hanging out of windows?

oliveoil · 25/04/2007 10:25

the Kate Moss ones?

There is also a lovely one shoulder dress in lemon

but I would saunter in and get in in my lunch hour if I wanted to shop at TS, not queue from 2am and fight

Enid · 25/04/2007 10:29

that dress comes with a free rolled up £20
apparently

ScottishThistle · 25/04/2007 10:29

My friend's made a fortune from the "got to have one of those" weirdos!

Sold a Primark dress on e-bay for £100!

rantinghousewife · 25/04/2007 10:30

If you pay £150.00 for the Anya H bag, you're nuts, it's tiny and everyone else will have one. Go knit yourself a nice bag, no one else will have one the same, guaranteed, think I'm gonna embroider 'fashion victim' on mine, just to make a statement. And that kate moss clothing line is soooo boring!!

Megglevache - the lovely granny baskets I use come from our local market. You can get pretty cotton covers for the tops too.

ScottishThistle · 25/04/2007 10:34

I've never came across another Woman with my fave handbag!

My advice: Save up & buy a bag with real character & style!

kittylette · 25/04/2007 10:35

what are those bright coloured ones that were on another thread a feww weeks back??

rantinghousewife · 25/04/2007 10:36

Luuurve those granny baskets, where else can you get them?

Beetrootccio · 25/04/2007 10:39

Enid,I love that jacket too

gscrym · 25/04/2007 10:40
