Fashionistas, a handbag question
Today I bought a medium sized black leather Tiganello hobo styled handbag at the thrift store. I got it for $2.50, did I get a good deal?

6. OMG
It could be a knock off, but it is real leather and it is very well made. I had just never heard of the brand name before.

3. Any time you can get a handbag for $2.50 it's a good deal.
That's where my wife does 75% of her shopping.

4. Two-fiddy???? Now you won't be able to afford the other half of a dog at the park!
Just about anything is a good deal at that price, but we need a pic to confirm.

8. I also recently acquired (from my SIL) an Etienne Aigner handbag for free
She no longer wanted it. That one is real leather too.

9. You have to go often. It is hit or miss at the ones by me.
I have stopped going to the Goodwill stores, around here they mark the prices on stuff really high.
