Now we all know that debenhams deals are ten-a-penny but the reason I am putting this up is that I received it today and I am very pleasantly surprised what a great deal it is for £10.50 - I was looking for a light small bag for when I don't want to use one of my saddleback leather bags (Saddleback owners will know what I am talking about :- )
The main reason that I think people will be interested is because the description on debenhams doesn't do it justice:
* Good internal secure pocket with a zip - handy for travel
* Good internal multiple pockets
* It is fully convertable from backpack to messenger. What the debenhams description doesn't make clear is (and this is hard to describe) is that when you don't want to use it as a backpack - it has effectively small pockets that the straps disappear into and you would never know they are there.
After receiving it - I think at the full price it would have been a good bag but at £10.50, I think it's a great deal for a well made well thought out day bag.
I had a £5 voucher from the Flame deer thing, so brought it down to £8.99 delivered

As usual, he who hesitates! Says low stock but when I went to order it, it says its out of stock!
Oh well, may not have been suitable anyway - I didn't want to use it as a backpack, literally just for carrying my lunchbox to work as it doesn't fit in my laptop bag. A Tesco carrier bag will have to do still for now (and that was £10.45 less than this too!)
I went for the laptop bag ... £10.50 happy days... less of a work gimp when travelling.

Was tempted as a spare changing bag for when I'm out with the bairn, but just had a look at the photos on the Debenhams site when it's converted. Hopefully the straps can be lengthened, otherwise it's a good look! :smile:
That black one seems to be different - no outer zip on mine.

If you are worried about that - get one of these - http://www.saddlebackleather.com/messenger-bag - although it is slightly heavier... (very comfortable to wear as a backpack however).

Black or Khaki? And - would it look like a woman's shoulder bag in reality?!

Like the way your socks match the bag :laughing:

Oh yeah!
Just something else I noticed - besides the interior space and pen pockets -besides the one secure zip pocket there is another in the flap which would be very hard for someone to get into while the bag while buckled...
