Coach Bags are always in style, but their prices can be a little hard to manage. Don’t worry, you don’t have to settle for cheap Coach knock-offs you find at your local swap meet. There are ways to get discounts on authentic Coach bags. Be a savvy purse shopper and don’t pay retail for your next Coach bag. With the money you save, you might be able to buy more than one bag or the perfect Coach accessory that compliments your new bag.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Buy out of season styles. Spring bags will feature bright colors, while fall bags will be in browns and darker colors. Current season’s styles will be full price, so if you want a chocolate brown bag, look in the spring.

  2. Step 2

    Go to the Coach outlets. Prices are marked down significantly. Check back often because the Coach outlets often featire sales on top of their already discounted prices. Be sure to check the clearance section for some incredible deals.

  3. Step 3

    Look in the Coach department of your local department stores. Their items are supposed to have the same price levels as the Coach stores, but sometimes you will find a discount. Plus department stores usually have some of last season’s bags on sale. The Coach stores usually clear those out and only display the latest styles.

  4. Step 4
     

    Register your purse. Give the cashier your name and address when you purchase your bag. You can also go to the Coach Web site and register the serial number inside the purse. This will put you in Coach’s database. Coach sends out preferred customer coupons to those that are registered.

  5. Step 5

    Wait until you get one of the preferred customer coupons before buying your purse. There is no limit on how many bags you can buy with the coupon. You can even bring your friends to share in the discount. This is a great option if you want a current Coach bag but don’t want to pay full price.

Tips & Warnings
  • Buy a neutral bag and add a scarf to match the season. It will be like having a new bag for fall and spring without having to pay for two bags.
  • You might find a lot of Internet sites that claim to sell authentic Coach Bags. The only way to ensure that you are buying a bona fide bag is to buy from a legitimate Coach retailer.
