The Sarut Group Rubber Chicken Purse

I love my chickens...and I really do like the concept of this purse. It is made of rubber, and therefore would be a great purse for rainy weather. When the purse arrived, it had been folded for shipping (I can understand that), However, I have to keep it fairly loaded so it doesn't look like a folded chicken. I love carrying it and always get compliments (or at least giggles), but I have had to quit carrying it since the zipper is so short and it is a constant struggle to get my wallet in and out through the zippered opening. When I do manage to get the wallet through the top it always seems to hang on the pocket inside the purse and I have to struggle to get it past that obstacle too. I am really disappointed that the inconvenience is greater than the pleasure of carrying it since I really do like the bag. I think it would have held up well if I had been able to use it more often. But alas, I guess it was not meant to be! On the plus side, once you are able to fit your items into the bag it holds quite a bit of necessary things that women like to carry around with them. Another plus for this bag is that if you happen to be of child bearing age and also happen to have a small person you are carrying around with you...I'm sure a couple of bottles would fit in here nicely along with a diaper or two. And if a bottle happened to leak...hey, no problem. Rubber chicken will protect liquids from bleeding through and damaging anything the purse happens to be sitting on. You would have to be careful with the diaper suggestion though. I think the zipper would probably tear the plastic around the diaper.
