Ha ha ha! It's rank.

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.

GrinAndTonic · 25/01/2015 05:50

It better come filled with crisps or that amount.

squoosh · 25/01/2015 05:56

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

squoosh · 25/01/2015 05:58

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????

Spidergirl8 · 25/01/2015 19:39

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

dexter73 · 25/01/2015 20:22

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".

Paperblank · 25/01/2015 20:28

What the bloody hell is that? It's hideous.

southeastastra · 25/01/2015 21:55

blimey it's out of stock

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

It's horrible, and I fucking love crisps.

FindMeAPixie · 25/01/2015 22:08

You have to wait 4 months for your beauty though..

Actually, i dont dislike either. I mean i wouldnt pay that price but its quirky and meant to be fun??? I would say, lighten up!
I have seen worse!

Camolips · 25/01/2015 22:22

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?

invisiblecrown · 25/01/2015 22:24

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

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