If the Housing Works All You Can Stuff Bag Sale was located in Manhattan, I’d probs approach it with a mix of trepidation and skepticism a la Barney’s Scarehouse Sale. I mean, it’s a whopping twenty dollars for as much clothing as you can stuff into a canvas shopping bag. Add frenzied, impatient Big Apple shoppers to the mix and you’ve got deafeningly high-pitched chaos on your hands. Thankfully (I think), the aforementioned sale requires a trek out to Long Island City – a likely deterrent for the masses. I, however, will be making the pilgrimage with my game face on. As I’ve never been to Long Island City and have a subpar sense of direction at best, I’m anticipating getting lost en route, but no biggie: Even if I walk with only two finds, that’s still $10 per item, and henceforth well worth the navigation aggravation.
If I happen to find more than I can stuff into my $20 bag? Beotch, please. My overpacking skillz boast the ability to roll anything into approximately one eighth of its original size. This is going to be CAKE.




This makes me ridiculously jealous! Hey, worst case scenario, you have a lot of stuff to sell on ebay.
But seriously, I’d do all three. 20 to stuff, 30 for prestuffed, and 40 for jeans. Just because I like surprises.
