About the Enchanted Purse Exchange
On average, a woman owns 3-5 purses at any given time. Women spend an average of $100 - $150 per year on handbags and often times much more. Most women love purses because of the way they make them feel. Purses provide a foundation for the image that women want to broadcast to the world, and allow women to express everything they are or want to be. A great purse instantly changes a woman’s mood for the better. Many once loved purses are packed away once they are replaced by others. In the spirit of “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure”, the Enchanted Purse Exchange will provide an opportunity for attendees to freshen up their handbag game by exchanging purses they no longer carry. Allpurses entered into the exchange are expected to meet a certain standard of quality and should be in good condition; free from excessive markings, with functioning straps and closures. Purses will be tagged based on the estimated value level and attendees can make a selection to exchange from purses at the same level of thepurse they submitted. Attendees wishing to exchange at levels higher than that of the purse they submitted will be required to complete a value level upgrade. Tickets are available at http://enchantedpurseexchange.eventbrite.com
