This Is Why We Love Ross
Despite the dirty shopping carts, despite the shopping at checkout (with a massive line behind), despite the almost pathologically lazy salespeople (and this across the board at virtually every Ross we frequent in Southern California), we love Ross Dress For Less. Today we got the bag, seen above, from the Warhol "Silver City" collection. We've been seeing various Warhol bags from Loop NYC at Ross, but none quite struck our fancy until we saw this one today. Amazon.com has the bags for sale right now for $48. We paid $19.99. Granted, we wouldn't have paid more than that, but we're almost always in a discount-shopping frame of mind. We realized that 98% of the time, we exclusive shop this way: clearance or sale racks or discount department stores (the aforementioned Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls).
Here's the description (right from Amazon.com) for our new bag:
