I’ve had the worst day today. I was a fraction of an inch from breaking down crying at work. So to have such a wonderful surprise waiting for me in my mailbox when I got home was so wonderful. My prize for winning Zannaland’s Disney Dooney & Bourke contest arrived today.
Here’s the bag!
I actually was able to get a “pouchette” (it’s like a little mini purse) instead of a wristlet and that’s wonderful for me since I wear glasses and always need my bags to be able to hold my sunglasses case. This is like the most perfect size; little enough to not be lugging around a huge bag but roomy enough for the sunglasses, cell, camera and wallet. Brilliant!! This is also my favorite pattern of all the bags so double brilliant!
And, since my entry was me giving a sad puppy dog look at the bags on the screen, it’s only fair to give a smiling version (or two!) now that I’m the proud owner of my very own Disney Dooney & Bourke!
HUGE thanks to all my friends, family, co-workers and supporters for voting for me! You guys rock!
Also, thanks to Zannaland for the awesome contest in the first place!
Yay!! So glad to see your happy pictures with it! I kept forgetting to tell you the story to this transaction – We went to TrenD on Saturday and picked up the pouchette, only to have the cashier ring it in at $60. I let her know it was supposed to be on sale for 30% off at $42, and she said, “Oh, that sale ended yesterday.” D’OH! Thank goodness for smartphones, because I pulled up DisneyStore.com on there and sure enough it was still on sale there. (I realize it’s a totally separate entity etc, but STILL…) J. actually spoke to the manager and it all worked out, so yay! Pretty funny coincidence tho right? The sale ended the DAY before we get there!? Oy.
Congratulations again on the win!! I know you’ll put it to good use. 🙂
OMG how ironic! *laughs* Well, I’m thankful you and J. were both persistent on my behalf! 🙂 It’s truly the most perfect bag. *hugs* Thank you again so much for running the contest too!
My pleasure! I forgot to mention it was the last one in TrenD too! 😉 I’m sure they’ll get more in, but still, seemed to be kismet that it all worked out!
