Disgusting…Dammit!
My bag is gross, right?
I’ve been toying with the idea of getting a new one. My trusty Timbuk2 Click Tote has been attached to my hip (not literally, it’s not a fanny pack) for about a year and a half now. It’s looking a little bit ragged. Some of the stitching has come apart, the colors are faded and there seems to be a mysterious stain that didn’t appear until after I put it through the wash.
And then I got an email from Timbuk2 today. I can get 20% off a brand new bag if I “break up” with my old one bag and send them my reject. Fabulous! Only one problem.
“Disgusting bags need not apply.” That’s a direct quote.
It’s true. No one would want my grimy, rain stained, clearly not colorfast satchel. Not even a homeless kid. Looks like I’m paying retail.
