Can a woman have too many bags?

Tubby Hubby (TH) thinks we are living in imminent danger of a bag avalanche. When we moved, I gave away more than 20 bags, ranging from dinky purses to huge luggage. It made TH happy... for a while.

Ever since we set up home in Hong Kong, I've been going crazy buying bags from Salvation Army. I just can't resist them and besides, they're all below S$10 so it's not as if I'm blowing the entire household money on fripperies.

Only thing is, I have a LeSportSac hobo that I really, really like and that's the only one I use all the time. So TH has been on my case to give away the others. "Can't," I told him. "I'm starting a bag collection that some day, some museum somewhere would give their eye-teeth to display."

A pretty good explanation, wouldn't you say? Pity it hasn't stopped TH for imposing a bag ban. I need to find something new to collect now.
