Netflix's concept, but...
 

http://www.bagborroworsteal.com/freetrial/index.cfm

Borrow a designer purse for a rental fee. Three different levels of membership to have access to different prices ranges of bags. Send your bag back and they send you your next choice.

What's next?

Spouses?

HA! Anyone want to rent mine?

Bagborroworsteal is a great site and concept. It's been featured all over the place in the past year or so. Though, I've never used them. I tend to just buythenbegforforgiveness. ;)

I think you may have advanced to the next tier of membership, where your husband is trained to bring them home to you ;)

Yes. I have advanced to the next tier of membership. Actually, I believe it is the top tier of membership, since my husband buys very cool bags for me on a regular basis.

Do you really want me to post links? :evil:

no.

I believe those are referred to as "escort services".

Yeah, renting a spouse isn't new, and I'd bet there are plenty of sites for that.

Hmm, I'm now pondering if selling yourself on a street corner is somehow more honorable than selling yourself over the internet....or vice versa....but I guess it's nasty either way.

Then there's iMatch, eHarmony, and the like, some more dirty than others. And come to think of it, you're paying a monthly fee for access to as many people as you want. Same thing as Netflix, really.

Hell, who needs to pay? I have a MySpace account that gets at least one proposal a week. I feel like updating my profile with disclaimers such as:

Yet another reason why I don't have a MySpace account.

My husband acquired this skill without any effort on my part. I sent him to the mall to get a cheap small evening bag from one of those mall knock-off kiosks to use on the cruise. It didn't matter how crappy it was, since it only had to last the one week -- and really only through formal night.

So he calls me from Nordstrom to tell me that he decided that I couldn't possibly seen with any of the bags at the kiosk and that he has selected two Coach bags for me and which one do I want.

Unfortunately, my budget couldn't handle $250 for an evening bag I'll never use again, so I had to tell him neither. But the instincts are there!

Or Swingers Clubs

Such as Lifestyles

NSFW!

Alas - My MySpace account gets nothing but crickets and cobwebs - Maybe they just don't get the beret over there? At least over at Mice Chat I get PMs from posters with the word "bear" somewhere in their screen names...

I get weird proposals but only in person. If I am on foot near the Greyhound station downtown, it is not unusual for an African-American man to approach me and chat me up before asking if I want to go smoke pot with him. It happens so frequently that once I was down there with a friend and I was just telling her how this happens and we stopped for a walk light and this guy walks up and proves I was speaking the truth.

And someone of some sort of Middle Eastern ethnic origin tried to pick me up in the Home Depot. That was a little creepy because he was following me around and I was worried that he would follow me to the parking lot.

Plus he was wearing a pink shirt and pink hadn't yet really hit the menswear trend yet at that time. At the time, pink shirt was way creepy.

Nah, that's about swapping. Netflix doesn't make you trade in your own DVDs.

I think PinPics is closer to swinging ;)
