I was carrying my very roomy, bottomless, beloved Stella McCartney Adidas Bag today and I noticed how heavy the thing was, so I thought I should probably clear it out. This is what was inside (a.k.a. proof I’m a bag lady):

What’s the weirdest thing in your bag right now?

I LOVE looking at the content of other people’s purses. When I was in high school my best friend and I had science lab together (we were both nerds) and I would clean out her purse. It was a win-win situation. Sometimes I will randomly ask people if I can go through or clean out their purses. I never said I wasn’t weird.
I like the Dora the Explorer DVD *giggles*
My bags used to be like that and I’d keep deodorant in them until one sad day when a stick melted on me…that was not fun.
The weirdest thing I have in my purse right now is this little toy with a cup, string, and ball. I got it for free at a restaurant and it lives a happy life in the bottom crevices of my purse.
Hm….I have a warranty for my powerwasher. That’s weird. Because it’s my anniversary present.
About 20 empty Chick-Fil-A mint wrappers. I am hoping that by saving them they will magcially regenerate new mints.
You carry round a Ikea catalogue? Thats funny!
I wish I could carry a purse again….I’m still stuck in diaper bag limbo. I do however have a said pocket in this diaper bag that is all mine lol.
This is completely random, but take a look at the cover of your 2010 Ikea Catalog. There is a creepy lil kid in the top, in a mirror whose picture is in black and white that is clearly not suppose to be there and must have been photoshoped in. Hubby and I found it and was cracking up. Way weird.
weirdest thing in mine is actually just the grossest thing which is a dirty klenex I kept when I whipped Avaya’s nose the other day incase I forgot to put a new one in (which I did forget) so now I’ll throw it out and put some new ones in there.
I can’t believe how many wallets you have that’s hilarious!
I just cleaned out my big diaper bag last week. My husband couldn’t stop laughing at all the half eaten lollipops. I need those sometimes to give to my little guy when he is driving me crazy in a store!
that’s an awful lot of junk errrr stuff…I purchased one of those tiny bags with lots of zipper pockets to force myself to cut back on what I carry around. It seems to be working out for the most part..
My purse is always, always a mess. I have loose receipts, crumpled gum wrappers, broken keychain parts…you name it.
A whirligig, light-up Easter egg thingy that Hollis loves to play with in a pinch. People have DIRTY minds whenever they see me whip it out and no kiddo is around to put it into context. haha
Hehehe that’s funny. Love the Dora DVD. Weirdest thing in my purse is a kool-aid packet a friend gave me the other day. Got to love some kool-aid
I try to clean my bag out on a regular basis, so mine is pretty dull. Of course a diaper, wipes, a pair of underwear for the potty training kid, wallet, notepad, pen, envelope system, keys, loose change and that is about it. Boring.
I never thought I’d meet another person who carried around the IKEA catalog. We were ment to be friends. I feel all warm and fuzzy now.
I was at a client lunch today, and as I was digging around my monster handbag searching for my wallet, I found 2 toy cars from a McD’s Happy Meal, a half eaten box of raisins, a toddler sock (just one), a few goldfish crackers and a plastic spider. HA..maybe time to clean out my purse!
I’m cracking up at all those wallets, too! That must be a record.
I have the standard stuff — diapers, hand sanitizer, snacks, gobs of lip gloss — but I think the strangest thing is what’s written on the back of my son’s coloring book. I have the personal email address of Kristin Armstrong, gold medalist and World Champion cyclist. It’s written on a little clip-out you’re supposed to write your kid’s name on and hang on their door so it says, for example, “Kellan’s Room.” But if I were to clip it out, it would say “Kristin Armstrong’s email’s Room.” Ha! I think that’s really funny, for some reason. (I interviewed her recently and as the interview wrapped up I realized I needed her email address. I couldn’t find a scrap of paper in my purse to save my life. Just the coloring book.)
That’s a lot of stuff! And a lot of wallets! Not sure what the weirdest thing in my bag – maybe the balloons (not inflated) at the bottom of my bag that I keep meaning to toss…
Haha! I love it! That’s awesome… I love how you had 3 wallets in your bag, plus your children’s wallets! Are you kidding me? Haha! Too funny! I so have to do a purse clean out soon, too. I found a soother in my purse today.
Wow! Thats quite impressive… and the fact that you have been lugging this around… You’ll have arms like Madonna’s! (Is that a good thing though?) I did this a while ago and was astonished at the amount of fluff in my bag. Fluff… where, how… and more importantly… why??
I had to go back and re-read the beginning of the post to see if you mentioned your back or shoulder hurting. hee hee That’s a lot of stuff girl. I think you win!
Ok, lemme see…I don’t think I have anything too crazy in my lovely Coach purse right now. I’ve got an unopened Rice Krispy Treat and 3 packs of gum. I’ve been forcing myself to carry around this baby version of my larger Coach purse to minimize the extra stuff.
I’m suprised that Coach purse you bought at the Outlets here wasn’t in your bag?
Wow, that was entertaining!! I love the diaper and deodorants… things we should all carry around with us!
I love that there was 2 deodorants… 1 for each pit!
