Travelon Leather Expandable Shoulder Bag

Stylish bag
I have never been fond of purses because they can not be attached to your body like a fanny pack. Fanny packs are just not hip enough and I have been looking for a purse/bag that can stay attached to me. This shoulder bag is attractive and compliments almost any attire. The strap fits comfortably over my left shoulder and the purse portion rests near my right back hip. I never take it off even when sitting down. There are a few design flaws: a small zippered pocket inside for earrings or small items would be nice, the expandable zippers are not necessary because there is plenty of room to place items without using the expansion, and there should be a zipper to make sure none of the items fall out under the flap. If you are using it to go abroad, there is no way to safety pin the outside zipper closed to prevent pick pocketers but you could place the strap on the right of your shoulder and have the purse hang in front of you instead of in back. Overall, I am very satisfied. Handbag Store

great travel bag
bought this to travel to Italy with (could not get on QVC--all sold out--and cheaper on Amazon) and it was perfect for traveling--carried alot but was not too heavy or cumbersome and very handy for in front over the shoulder items (camera, cellphone, wallet, passport, etc..)and felt safe--great bag for travel...........

love it
I bought this for my mom, who is a grandmother. She wanted something she could keep on and still hold her newborn grandson without worrying about it falling off. She loves all the compartments and the size. Her friends have complimented her on it and asked where they could get one too.

Samsonite Oyster 31 inch Luggage Upright

lightweight, sturdy - wish it had better handles
We bought this luggage to contain some very heavy items we travel with (my husband has a physical disability and this is his transfer device to move from the bed to the wheelchair). The transfer device weighs about 65 pounds. The size is perfect, the straps that snap over the top are useless for something so heavy but would work well for clothing. What I love about this piece is that it's very lightweight and yet was able to transport the device without trouble. My only complaint is that there is really only one handle to use when lifting the bag - the one on the side. If there was another handle on the top besides the pulling one, that would be perfect. It is very awkward to lift the bag otherwise. I find I have to use the plastic feet on the bottom of the bag for a hand hold and they are not the best shape for that use - sharp edges and small size allow only for careful finger placement, which is hard to do on the airport luggage roundabouts. Warranty is nice.

A fully lined suiter clip on the main lid and tie down straps help you tote formal and casual clothes alike, while four pockets offer easy storage and security.

Light and Mighty
We love the Delsey bag - it's unbelievably light, yet very nicely made, with sturdy retractable pull, nice locks, and the expansion zipper's pull is cleverly colored red instead of blue, like the regular zipper, so you don't waste time opening the wrong one. It's a great color to show up on the airport carousel. I can't think of anything else they could have added. I've filled it with about 30 small quilts with no problem and look forward to seeing how much I can pack to hit the 50-pound airline limit.

Samsonite 4-Piece Luggage Travel Sets

I'm Happy With This
My luggage arrived today. I was a little nervous ordering luggage on-line based on a picture and description, without being able to check how the wheels move, how strong the zippers are, etc. but my old luggage was Samsonite so I figured it must be good.
I also had been pricing luggage in the stores and thought the price for this set was very good. Samsonite Luggage

I bought the luggage in red, and it looks fantastic, although all the bags are slightly smaller than I thought they'd be. They are adequately sized for my use, but I took away 1/2 star for this reason. It rolls very smoothly and seems well constructed. I like how the pull-handles not only recess into the luggage, they have a zippered flap that cover and protect the recessed handles. At first I thought it did not come with luggage tags, but they are actually built into the side of the luggage (as opposed to hanging from the handles).
The tote bag looks very stylish and roomy, with lots of compartments, but again, it is slightly smaller than I expected. It also comes with a zippered toiletries bag, which I think is another name for a shaving kit. I didn't think I would want or need this, but with the current airline restrictions, it will come in handy to pack liquid things, and of course a razor, that would normally be in my carry-on bag but are no longer allowed, and keep them separated from clothing (in case of leakage).
I can't wait to use this luggage, which will be the true test of its strength and durability. 4.5 stars

This Samsonite 4-Piece Travel Set includes a 26 upright, 22 upright, travel tote and toiletry kit.
Includes the following four styles:
26 Upright (26 x 18 x 10; 11.4 lbs.

World Food Programme Feed Bag

Buying one World Food Programme Feed Bag feeds a child in school for one year
Price: Feed Bag


Buying one World Food Programme FEED bag feeds a child in school for one school year.
School feeding acts as a magnet, dramatically increasing enrollment, sometimes by as much as 100 percent. It also improves performance at school; children concentrate better on a full stomach. Girls who go to school not only marry later but have half as many children than illiterate women. Furthermore, these children are healthier and better educated.
10 cents a day or 20 dollars a year can transform a child's life and provide the tools for a lifetime of self-reliance. School feeding is a simple but effective way to beat hunger and poverty.
The FEED Project is a partnership between the United Nations World Food Program and Lauren Bush, WFP Honorary Spokesperson.

Customer Reviews
GOOD IDEA YET MISLEADING
When I first saw this, I thought it was such a wonderful idea! I'm disappointed in the price though-when I received it, it stated that only $20.00 of my dollars would be going to the fund. Top it off, made in China. Where does the rest of the $$ go? It's better to give directly so that MORE OF YOUR DOLLARS GO WHERE THEY ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED!!

Great idea, but look closely at the tag
I absolutely love my feed bag. It's great for carrying books to class and stylish to boot. But I have to say that I was very disappointed when I saw that the bag was made in China, which probably means it was created with sweatshop labor. I don't want to compromise some people's rights in order to help others. The program should look into making the bag fair-trade, and then we can proudly show our feed bags!

LOVe my Feed Bag
I seriously fell inLOVe w/ this bag when I 1st saw it in my Teen Vogue.
I knew it was for a good cause plus it looked different & not like something a random girl @ my school would be carrying.
I'm a senior in highschool, I use this bag as my purse & school bag. Its G-R-E-A-T, I carry SOOo much stuff in it & it still looks amazing =]
The thing is, nobody @ my school has this bag and really NoBOdy cares about paying $60 for a bag that feeds a child no matter how cool it may look..so I'm glad I went for it & bought it.
Around here I'm the only one who has it & I know I'm making a difference..everyone LOVES it, so people! get yourself one! because your bag looks good, but you look even better because you're making a difference in a childs life JanSport Luggage
