I've never quite understood the appeal of expensive handbags. To me, the sign of an excellent purse is being able to comfortably hold a book, without squashing all of the other stuff I carry around with me. But I'm perfectly willing to try to win a designer handbag to see if it'll change my outlook. And Marie Claire's March Giveaway-a-Day Sweepstakes is giving me - and all of you! - plenty of chances to win.

Each day, a lucky prize winner will be chosen to receive a free Chocolate designer handbag. Which Chocolate bag you'll win depends on the day you enter. The handbags are worth between $100 and $165 each.

Entry into Marie Claire's March Giveaway-a-Day Sweepstakes is open to residents of the US and Canada who are above the age of majority. Enter daily through March 31, 2010.

Have you ever owned a designer handbag? Did you love it? Or are you happy with owning a bag that's functional but no fashion statement? Click the "comments" link below to share your opinion!

I never thought expensive handbags were worth the money. The way I treat bags, I usually went through one $20 purse a year. Then, my future husband bought me a Coach handbag for Christmas (about $100). Ten years later and it’s still going strong.
I keep up its appearance with some leather polish.
I have changed my opinion of pricey handbags.

Jane, that is a compelling argument, I used to do the same thing, go through a $20 purse a year. I got a leather one four or five years ago, and it’s still not in bad shape, but it’s getting there. Ten years would sure be nice.
