I had been planning a big trip for months, and I knew that I needed to get some new luggage. My old suitcase was looking tired and didn’t have enough space. I wanted something durable, but also stylish, and I love that tan color that looks so classy.
So, I started looking around online first. I checked out Macy’s because I saw they had some stuff on sale. It said, “free shipping available,” which was a good start. Then I looked at Dillard’s, they had all sorts of things like suitcases, carry-ons, and even laptop bags. I made a mental note to compare prices later.
I saw a bunch of brands and prices on some other sites. There was this Inusa Deep Lightweight for $200, an American Tourister Pop Max 3-Pc. for $399.99, and even a fancy Tumi Voyageur Celina Backpack for around $379. These were some of the options I found. I jotted down the prices and models to check out in person if I could.
Next, I headed to Best Buy’s website. I figured they might have some good deals in their “Outlet” section. I saw an American Tourister suitcase for $89.99, which was marked down 22%. That seemed like a pretty good deal, but I wasn’t sure about the color options they had.
After that, I went over to Costco’s website because they usually have good deals on bulk items. I found a few luggage sets that looked promising, especially one from Sweetcrispy that had a hard shell and spinner wheels. It seemed like a solid choice, but I still wanted to explore more options.
Bed Bath & Beyond was my next stop online. They had a deal where you could get 5% back in rewards, which was cool. I browsed their sale section and saw some decent-looking luggage sets, but nothing really jumped out at me just yet.
I also read some reviews to get an idea of which brands were good. I found an article from the Good Housekeeping Institute’s Textiles Lab. They said Samsonite was a top pick because of its consistent quality and prices. They mentioned that hardside luggage is better for international travel since it’s more durable and weather-resistant.
After all that online research, I decided to go to a few stores in person. I wanted to see the luggage up close, check the zippers, and get a feel for the size and weight. I ended up going to a couple of department stores and a few specialty luggage shops.
Finally, after comparing all the options and prices, I found the perfect tan luggage set at a local store. It was a 3-piece hardside set with spinner wheels, and it was on sale! I was so happy with my purchase, and I felt like I got a great deal.
It was a bit of a journey to find the right luggage, but it was worth it. I ended up with a stylish, durable, and spacious tan luggage set that I’m excited to use on my trip.
