DisneyStore - Make Your Own Messenger Bag?

[sassyat30]

I ordered on Monday and I haven't heard anything yet.

I just checked the status of my order, and it says "we are unable to obtain the status of your order from the warehouse at this time."

What does that mean?

I just checked and this is the message I got.

We are currently unable to obtain the status of your order from our warehouse system.

Please check again later to see the current status of your order, or contact Guest Services for further assistance.

I also ordered my stuff on Monday. I wonder if that means they are preparing our stuff to be sent out.

I was wondering if someone could put a bunch of things in the bag and then take them all out and take a picture so I can see just how much this bag holds.

Great idea! And I was wondering where everyone is putting stuff, like where is your camera going, in the outside zipper pocket or inside? Cell phone, in the mesh outside or inside, hmmm...

For those of you that have started using the messenger bag already, how are they holding up? Are they really lightweight?


I'm thinking it may be large enough to toss in Pal Mickey, a poncho, a digital camera and ??

My bags are supposed to be delivered on Monday - I can post pics of what they'll hold, if no one else does by then.

I got mine yesterday. It seems pretty lightweight to me. I will be glad to put a bunch of things in the bag and take pictures and post them when I get home later.

How big is a Pal Mickey? Is it the same size as a regular stuffed Mickey?

Oooooh, this is killing me! I am at work, and for some reason nobody's pictures will show up for me!! I want a bag so bad, but am stressing about what they look like for real, and what color embroidery.

 

[ZerasPride]

SnowWhite - I did the same thing. Obsessed about what color bag I wanted. Of course by the time I made up my mind, that color was sold out! I finally decided as much as I would like a pink (too girlie) or the red (seemed too bright) that I would get the navy with Classic Minnie and my initials. Then I had a hard time deciding if I wanted script or block lettering. Ugh! I waited so long I lost out on the 20 or 25 percent off code that was posted the other day. But I will say all in all, I'm glad I waited until I was able to customize the bag exactly as I wanted. I hope you are able to do the same!

Even though I have yet to be notified, I checked the status of my order and it's been shipped!

Pal Mickey is 10 1/2 inches tall and weighs with batteries about 4 pounds. I see by the pictures that he will probably fit fine. So I'm going to consider getting a bag. Then again with my sweater and camera and even my minimal stuff, I may still have to go with the tote bag used last year.

thanks!

Thanks for the pics w/ all the stuff you could put in it - looks like a lot! YEAH!

I ordered a lavendar one w/ Aurora for my youngest dd, Aurora (name in Pink Block), a lavendar one w/ Belle for my oldest dd, Avery Belle (name in yellow Script), a blue one w/ Lightening McQueen for my ds, Tabor (name in yellow Block), a red one w/ Mickey for dh or me w/ "Tyson" (our last name in Black). Soooooo excited - we got them for $9.xx w/ the 25% off code and got $5 shipping b/c I ordered a t-shirt to get my total to $50.21.... The kids are so excited about getting their own bag!

 

[SnowWhite12]

When did you order to get the 25% off?

I have to tell ya, the picture of the bag that is on the screen when you design it, is really exactly what it will look like, so, don't stress!

Thanks to this thread I got my daughter and myself laptop bags. Sorry for the poor contrast. They seem to be very sturdy and have plenty of pockets to store everything in.

 

[Mom2Punkin]

Thanks to whoever started the bag frenzy! Mine is winging its way to Michigan right now and I can't wait to get it!!

Thanks for the info on the laptop bags. My DD will graduate from high school in a year...I know, I'm thinking in advance. We've been planning to get her a laptop for graduation and I thought maybe I should get the bag while it's on sale. I was mainly concerned that they wouldn't be sturdy. I think I'll go ahead and get one since you're happy with yours.

I got this bag about 8 months ago. It was smaller than I thought it would be but worked great for what I needed it for. I used it about 3 times a week for about a month when it started to show wear and tear. The bottom of the cell phone pouch ripped and I almost lost my cell. The lining and edging/trim on the inner divider came apart but I duct taped it. The lining is pretty thin and starting to wear. I took it to WDW in Jan with us. It was used as our main bag and did good. The pouch on the flap is really sturdy. The strapping and clasps are very strudy. My only problems are the nylon lining/dividers are flimsy and the Shoulder strap comfort padding is somewhat cumbersome. It fit everything we needed for 3 kids and ourselves and my hubby would carry it around It did get heavy with all of our stuff in it, but empty it's not that bad.
