What has happened to the price of Duffles?
What is a "duffle" anyway, and why does it need a bag?

1. Wikipedia: name comes from Duffel, town in Belgium where the thick cloth used
to make the bag originated. More recently, a duffel bag refers to specific style of bag, though the phrase may be used to for any large generic holdall or a bag made of thick fabric. (loosely quoted)

Duffle Bag means Summer Camp, hiking, travel and fun. We wanted to paint flower power on an Army bag for my granddaughter, until we saw how overwhelmingly big it would be for her. Opted for an already pink-cammo printed duffle with cool zippers and pockets. Off to Summer Camp! Can't wait to hear her stories of the banana boating, tubing, rock climbing and zip line experiences.

... you thought "what happened to the price of truffles" would have been too obvious?
