It was 9:50am.  I rubbed my hands in anticipation of the Telfar bag drop that was going down in 10 minutes. I smiled as I visualized myself toting the hot pink mini bag to brunch with my girls.  I already styled my fit in my head. 

The clock struck 9:55.  It was almost time. I had my credit card in one hand and the fingers from my other hand hovering over my keyboard. At 9:59am, I refreshed my screen and was ready to hit the ‘add to cart’ button until I saw the words no shopaholic ever wants to see when it comes to a desired item….SOLD OUT! My mouth hung open in disbelief.
