AIBU not to buy a new sports bag and make DD take her packed lunch?

DD recently got a new branded PE bag that was quite expensive and she really liked. Until she saw that another girl in her year had the same bag. Now it’s misery before every PE lesson and she is currently turning the house upside down to find another bag that she can use instead. Seriously?
Earlier this evening after I finished work we went out especially to get packed lunch items that she asked for. Now she has requested to buy lunch in school instead!
AIBU to be really annoyed?

Yanbu. Don’t give her money for lunch!

She can buy it via parent pay :-(

Can she customise the sports bag with badges or patches to make it unique?
Tell her you bought the lunch bits she asked for so if you find she's bought lunch at school it will come out of her allowance/ she'll have to do a chore at the weekend to earn it.

Don't add the money to parent pay then
