The Only Downside is Parting with Chimay

A few months ago, my sister joined both me and Adrianne as a proud owner of a Crumpler Bag. The McBain's Lovechild I bought from them online is really well made, and pretty swell looking. The only downside is that you pay for what you get; at $40, my laptop bag was one of their cheapest.

So to prove how incredibly cool they are, they're running a promotion starting a week from today that anyone should be able to get down with: Beer for Bags. You show up with some combination of beer, exchange it for a bag, and then hang around and drink with the staff. Sounds like June is the time to be working the Crumpler store in Manhattan. Now I just need to find someone who will deliver my 12 pack of Leffe and bottle of Chimay while I'm in Chicago to secure me a Complete Seed.

You're clearly all insane. The way to go is a cheap bag your boss got as swag at a railroad conference.

Meanwhile, I'd ask Corinne. She's leaving town soon, but I dunno how soon.

I actually have plenty of people in New York who are happy to make the trip (and drink the beer). I was more trying to goad other people into stopping by (or doing so by proxy). I don't know if people have checked out that site yet, but there are more than just laptop bags available. You can get a new iPod case for the low (and highly drinkable) price of four Boddington's. Now that's my kind of deal.
